Twin Oaks

Evolving suburban water garden. Enjoy spring colour from azaleas, rhododendrons and bulbs, then summer colour from perennials, water lilies and tropical plants. A lawn meanders between informal beds and ponds, and bridges lead to a tranquil pergola seating area overlooking a wildlife pond. A rockery is skirted by a stream and a waterfall tumbles into a large lily pond, home to dragonflies. Aviary.

About Twin Oaks

The Portland stone rockery is skirted by a stream and waterfall which tumbles into a large lily pond inhabited by dragonflies and damsel flies. Relax within the cosy sheltered arbours or the large gazebo. Watch doves, finches, quail and guinea pigs in our large aviary. Statues are scattered through the garden. A carniverous bog garden provides additional interest. Tree ferns and banana trees are included in a tropical ‘jungle’ area. Substantial plant sale all from the garden. Tea and cakes on the patio beside the lily pond or take a seat at one of the tables dotted through the garden. Level paths with no steps are suitable for disabled visitors.
