40 Michel Dene Road

A medium sized sloping garden on chalk and flint in the South Downs National Park, with stunning views over the Downs to the sea. Informal flower beds display a love of colour in mainly herbaceous borders. A summerhouse overlooks a wild garden with pond, and a small vegetable plot. Several seating areas nestle in a riot of salvias, grasses, roses, penstemon and other perennial favourites.
