| Description of Garden | Designer:
Monique Paice |
|||||||||||
| A very intensively planted three-acre garden surrounding an early 18th century Cotswold stone manor house. There are a number of garden rooms featuring an abundance of unusual plants in exciting colour, shape textural combinations. Many tender plants used in both the borders and the exuberantly planted containers - ranging from large lead cisterns to giant terracotta vases. A variety of small water features, interesting topiary, mainly of Buxus sempervirens catch the eye. A unique shade house inspired from a visit to Canada is an interesting feature. This is a plantsman's paradise. |

| History of Garden | ||||||||||||
| The garden has been largely created over the last 20 years by the present owners, Mr & Mrs Paice. | ||||||||||||
