Rural Berkshire Garden

A Rural Berkshire Garden with a Panoramic View

A 1930's house with an outstanding garden

This garden has been entirely rethought by Taylor Tripp garden designers and AS Gardens have had the opportunity to maintain these gardens ever since.

A series of larger garden rooms have been created separated by formal Yew hedging and planted borders. Some of the original features, such as the mature Lime trees along the drive and a Sorbus tunnel, were retained to offer maturity within the new layout along with additional soft planting to create a relaxed feel and blend the garden with its rural surroundings.

Park railings were introduced to define the garden boundary, but allow a newly graded lawn to flow seamlessly into an adjoining Buttercup meadow. The lawn is now framed with a bold planting of soft coloured Peonies and Alchemilla and a widened terrace on the west facade looks out over topiary Yews, painted obelisks and cool white planting of Campanula, Echinacea and Roses. 
The original 1930s’ summerhouse. Has been enhanced by planting of old fashioned Roses to ramble up and cascade over it, to create a slightly rustic and romantic rural effect.

A terrace and formal lawn, framed by mixed borders, offer an outlook from the new orangery, punctuated by Yew hedging to enhance the formal structure and to frame some beautiful specimens of Malus hupehensis. The lawn culminates in a semi-circular design, with Yew hedging concealing a pool garden beyond 

A.S. Gardens are delighted to offer regular maintenance on this garden, so see the full list of activities undertaken please click here.
