| Description of Garden | Designer:
Mary Benger |
||||||||||||
| Beautifully landscaped seven acre gardens with wonderful views and many interesting features including the woodland garden in a Roman clay pit with ponds, moisture loving plants and wild flowers. Old roses and herbaceous plants are featured in the pergola walk. The terrace garden specialises in later summer flowering perennials. New for the millennium was the Rill garden with traditional stone summerhouse and water features combined with unusual plants. The colour combinations in the whole garden are stunning, a plantsman's delight. |
