Open this week - Staffordshire

Ashcroft & 26 Claremont Road, Eccleshall

Tranquillity descends as you enter this one acre wildlife friendly garden at Ashcroft. Pass the pond into a covered courtyard. Rooms flow seamlessly around the Edwardian house. Sunken herb bed, treillage, Victorian style greenhouse with raised beds. A topiary peacock struts in the gravel bed. In the woodland area a goblin lurks in the steps of the ruin. Look for the stone carvings and stained glass sculpture. 26 Claremont Road is a relatively small town garden design based on Feng Shui principles. Lovingly manicured and constantly evolving herbaceous borders with shrubs, perennials and annuals to maintain colour and interest throughout the year. An artist with an artist’s eye has blurred the boundaries of this Italianate-influenced garden, watched over by a large stone lion. Open Sunday 7th June.
