Four years in the making, this garden grew from a single to a double plot requiring some clever design solutions, and plenty of earth-shaping to create a unified landscape. Taking inspiration from the Georgian style architecture, this garden is divided into a series of ‘outdoor rooms’, my favourite of which is the forest-walk garden. In this space, a path of granite and timber winds through a beautiful collection of camellias, azaleas, fuchsias and ferns. The garden also features an immaculate lawn terrace and formal rose garden.
