About the garden

Area: 3000 m2 approx.
Annual rainfall: 815mm approx.

The large, beautifully designed garden around the newly renovated historic home is a modern take on traditional style. Tonnes of soil was moved and meticulously crafted sandstone retaining walls constructed to create level usable space with generous lawns and wide meandering paths that lead from formal areas with box hedging to informal spaces filled with cottage garden plants. A pair of substantial feature pergolas planted with wisteria and roses were added and the original outbuildings, existing old trees and a fishpond are skilfully integrated into the design.
