About Mansion Cottage

Having to walk through the hall of this end terraced house makes the garden even more surprising and private. Our August planting is dense throughout, especially in the 100 ft border and in the hot border. Herbaceous perennials make up the majority of the garden, but many grasses give it a sense of movement, sound and height. There are a number of seats throughout the garden which offer many different views as well as the chance to take shelter in the Summerhouse, Conservatory, Art Studio or Greenhouses. We’ve planted especially to attract bees, butterflies and other pollinators and some of the borders can seem alive on a sunny day. Our café style drinks, small plates, produce stalls and soaps are always a great attraction too, all hand made here at Mansion Cottage.

Japanese influenced area, mini hosta walk, 100ft border, summerhouse and art studio. Vegetable plot, cuttery, late summer border, bee and butterfly border, deck and lawns. Sweet and savoury small plates served from the conservatory. Produce, plants and home made soaps for sale.
