    Gardens

    A woodland garden with a modern classical home

    With no hedges or boundary trees, the garden is open to the surrounding landscape and feels very much part of it, especially as the fluid planting has been designed to give the romantic, gauzy feel of a wildflower meadow but with a longer season of interest and a greater variety of plant type and form. Here, Sisyrinchium striatum, Lupinus ‘Noble Maiden’ and Phlomis russeliana catch the eye.

    Informal planting for an idyllic Cotswold garden

    Iris sibirica fringe a stream that flows through the orchard below Mothecombe House. The house is flanked by a large Magnolia x soulangeana already in leaf on the left and the candyfloss-pink blossom of a Judas tree Cercis siliquastrum on the right.

    Masses of primroses with pale, striped squill (Puschkinia scilloides) and blue scillas light up the river bank under the trees in early spring. The view of the floating garden on the water and vistas of the lawn and borders can be best enjoyed from here.

    Create the perfect Cotswold garden

    Gresgarth Hall sits at the mouth of a wooded valley, with the brook Artle Beck drawing a sweeping curve as it rushes past the house. Dark yew hedges stamp formality near the house and echo the stone walls etched on the hills beyond.
