A masterclass in landscape design where formality meets freedom, every space tells its own story. Admire the vast, level lawn enclosed by high hedging and impeccably maintained walls. Known as the Marquee Garden, this private and impressively sized space could be ideal for hosting everything from weddings to charity galas, with chestnut trees and blooming borders softening the edges in a flourish of colour. Another, more relaxed lawned garden is framed by golden beech hedging, while the orchard brings seasonal interest and a fruitful harvest in the autumn. Summer days, meanwhile, are best spent beside the heated swimming pool - safely enclosed by wrought iron fencing.

A garden that retains warmth, symmetry and timeless English elegance, each area offers a quiet celebration of texture and tone. Meander further and the mood shifts once more: beneath mature trees in the side garden, spring bulbs form a more informal scene, which in turn opens into a securely fenced paddock. For families, there’s a magical tree house and play area tucked amongst the trees - just one of many hidden corners that invite imagination and escape. Whether it’s morning coffee on the patio terrace, a quiet moment on a bench beneath the boughs, or a garden party in full swing, this is a landscape made for living - beautifully grown, perfectly kept and endlessly inspiring.
