Sunningdale

About Sunningdale

A seaside garden with 3 distinct areas. The Headland is a wild area with accessible beaches, caves, cliffs, wildflowers and heathers. Seating to soak up the atmosphere and enjoy the wildlife from butterflies to dolphins.

There are many paths which must be adhered to because of sheer drops and the wildflowers we are nurturing. The front garden has a raised pond, friendly fish, a small wildlife pond and a stream through the associated planting. This area is a stones throw from the sea and although it is surrounded by a mixed hedge has to deal with harsh conditions.

The relatively sheltered rear garden is a modern cottage style garden featuring a spectacular old Scottish laburnum in flower late April/May. There are plenty of plant species and varieties, including hostas, heucheras, wisteria, roses and clematis all made possible by innovative protection from the wind. There are raised vegetable beds, a fruit area, a small wild area, some gravel beds, an interesting composting facility and lots of seating including gabion inspired seating. Open style fencing, hedges and paths create secluded areas and complex vistas giving ideas for any garden. The back garden access is via steps, the headland also has steps to reach all areas.

Access to ours and our neighbour's private headland and a completely different atmosphere in the rear garden. A 70 year old Laburnum. different gardens within the garden and many paths. Wheelchair access to front garden only.
