Penybont

Carefully designed hillside country garden next to the Ystwyth Forest with views overlooking the valley. An acre of vistas with varied interest, colour and textures; from spring bulbs and bluebells, to a pond, rhododendrons, and azaleas throughout May. Roses bloom from June and the garden has a Mediterranean summer feel with swathes of lavender, grapevines and lots of brightly coloured hydrangeas.
