A secluded woodland garden room beneath an ash canopy, framed by a timber palisade supporting roses, hydrangeas, and clematis. An understorey of silver birch and hazel provides a setting for shade loving ferns, perennials, grasses, and a bog garden, and is framed by two container ponds, reclaimed brick pathways, and bench seating. New for 2026: a water feature by sculptor Andrew Revell.

The bench seating in steel and oak, and the water feature (new for 2026), are the result of a collaboration with the sculptor Andrew Revell. The side passage to the house has been transformed into a potting area with water-butt storage and space for propagation.
