A beautiful hidden gem that surprises visitors when they enter. The mature planting is varied, exuberant and full of colour with mixed perennial and herbaceous borders and traditional rose beds, a vegetable garden and a large selection of mature trees. The site, just under an acre, has numerous paths providing access to various levels. An interesting urban oasis - an inspiration for gardeners.
