“Our aim was not to create the ‘perfect garden’ but to preserve a living snapshot of a dying age”

“the doors of the house had been, in a way, tightly locked, sealing in years of mystery and character, whereas the doors of the garden had been left wide open and romance had turned to ugliness”

The gardens you see today date back to the eighteenth century. Whispers of former times echo through gardens now repaired rather

than restored and presented as a celebration of their survival
