About Belmont House

This young garden is the garden to a newly built country house completed in 2015. The structure of the garden was designed by the architect to the house, and is a fusion of the romantic English garden of borders and climbing plants with a classical formality that reflects the house. The fine walls that enclose the garden with the same Hornton stone as the house are a feature of the design and contribute to the micro-climate that has done much to enable the garden to mature so fast. Robert Ward is a knowledgeable and enthusiastic plantsman; he has filled his garden with the old-fashioned roses that he loves but has not ignored the modern roses that perform so charmingly, and he has overseen the re-planting of fine trees from a previous garden. Colour is maintained throughout the spring, summer and autumn. This garden is very much an extension of the house: three doors give access to the stone-flagged terrace that overlooks the garden, and a flight of elegant steps leads down into a garden that never fails to entertain the eye.
