About Croft House

Landscaped and planted rear garden of a 15 year old village house. Modest in size, the garden has a formal style with a contemporary feel and strong architectural elements in both planting and design: a line of pleached hornbeams marks the boundary; rose clad oak arches and small geometric planting beds edged with clipped box link the main terrace to an oak pergola with an unusual pebble mosaic base; a pebbled path leads past an eye catching sandstone wing water feature to an intimate dining terrace; and a small lawn with herbaceous borders brings a traditional green heart to the garden. Other points of interest include: a small kitchen garden area with raised vegetable beds; and a concealed utility area with a greenhouse.
