About Aberangell, The Old Coach House

The backdrop to this garden is the Dyfi River and surrounding hills. The garden has evolved over the years so that it consists of informal flower beds, shrubs, a gravel bed and narrow meandering paths.

Garden sheds previously used as stables, large compost bays, greenhouses and a poly tunnel are
hidden away from the main garden. Bees are in the field adjacent to the garden. Plants are chosen to attract pollinating insects to the garden and to support the honey bees.

A white border runs the length of the garden with a small hot bed in front of a high stone wall. Grasses, wild flowers, fruit trees and good pollinating plants form another bed which is accessed via a chamomile path. A garden room and various seating areas provide different views of the garden and surrounding countryside.
