Secret Paradise

An impressive taxus vased vista comes to a halt with a classic stone planted trough flanked by tall columns and flint wall backdrop.

This property is full of formal hedging, shrubs and traditional planting schemes. Natural stone walls separate each of the traditional garden rooms. Pink and purple perfection can be found in the raised bed fronted by elegant grasses, irises and a carpet of erigeron. Opposite the winter aconites and cyclamen providing glorious underplanting for a mature flowering cherry, is the private library enclosed with buxus hedging and shingle courtyard. Through the stone wall archway, a spectacularly gnarled robinia dominates. Squeeze past and mind your head, while the flagstone patio awaits via the rose and clematis clad Victorian arch. Inspired planting throughout makes the most of the sunny aspects and dappled shade.
