About Hollymount

A new garden laid out by the award winning team at Acres Wild. A steeply sloping hillside that boasts four large ponds shared by fish and ducks. A stream meanders through the garden over many small falls and lush planting. The gravel paths wind through Rhododendrons, a variety of beds, Acers and other trees. An interesting water garden has been made out of an old quarry with viewing platform, decking and winding path. There are two greenhouses, a shepherds hut, summerhouse, stables and other buildings dotted through the landscape. There is a lovely stone bridge and a rill, a fine kitchen garden and lots of unusual chickens.
