Designed and built by two couples, this garden for all seasons was started in 1988.
It boasts cottage, woodland and Japanese-style gardens, along with water features and borders of perennials, with a particular emphasis on southern hemisphere plants.
There are unusual plants for the plantsman to enjoy, many grown from seed. The contrasting styles, all flowing together, make the gardens easy to wander anywhere.
The gardens have wheelchair access over grass on bark paths and include unfenced ponds.
