Peaceful 12 acre woodland garden with continuing progress and improvement. Very much a spring garden with tall, glorious mature azaleas and rhododendrons in every shade of pink, orange, red and white, interspersed with acers and other woodland wonders. A magical garden to get lost in with many twisting paths leading downhill to a pond and a more formal layout of lawns around the house (not open).
