Bracondale Gardens

A warm welcome awaits you at these three attractive compact town gardens a short walk apart and each with a different character. 1 Woodside Cottages: A very pretty, small cottage garden packed with colourful plants both ornamental and edible and even the resident chickens are decorative. Fruit trees and vegetables grow side by side with perennial and annual flowers and a small pond supports a multitude of frogs each spring. 18 Conesford Drive: This professionally designed and planted garden lies at the back of a 1960s modernist house. Restrained planting of herbaceous flowering plants, climbers and small shrubs give the garden a Japanese feel and a small pool contains white flowering water lilies. 14 Conesford Drive: Lush planting of fruit, vegetables and flowers welcome you at the side of this 1960s modernist house leading to a densely planted cottage garden of carefully selected perennials and climbers.

About Bracondale Gardens

1 Woodside Cottages is a small white painted Victorian cottage and its garden is packed with colourful cottage garden plants which grow side by side with fruit and vegetables. A pond fits neatly into the design and supports many frogs each spring. Even the resident chickens are decorative!
18 Conesford Drive This garden lies behind a 1960s architect designed modernist house and is an oasis of calm and tranquility. A pool with white water lilies, herbaceous plants, climbers, shrubs and trees have been chosen to give the space a Japanese feel.
14 Conesford Drive Cottage garden style borders with plants specifically chosen for dry shade (under silver birch trees) and dry sun on the steeply sloping banks. Terraced vegetable borders constructed from sleepers. Drifts of plants to create interest and contrast.
