A garden of two parts: one a box garden filled with roses, clematis and fruits trees with a discreet potting area and greenhouse at the side of the shed; The second is less formal with herbaceous beds and wildlife pond which is back filled with white and lime hydrangeas together with autumn red leafed shrubs. At the back of the cottage lies a narrow colourful courtyard with homegrown bonsai trees.
