It is a wonderful illustration of a harmonious landscape garden anchored in the principles of John Brookes. The design blends formal areas with playfulness and tranquil natural settings. This garden represents my vision of a heavenly, alluring garden on a grand scale, and bringing it to life was an absolute delight.
This grand garden is situated in the scenic countryside in England. It includes a large house and a tennis court. The land is sloped, and the eastern side of the property provides a breathtaking view of the surrounding countryside hills.
The owner wanted a place for gatherings around the jacuzzi area and a swimming pond for relaxation and exercise. This design features a landscape garden style with different formal areas near the house. There are three terraces along the house following the sloping terrain, and the last sunbathing terrace provides an entry point to the landscape garden.
As you venture further away from the house, the garden unfolds before you, revealing a beautiful and fragrant display of plants. The planting leads you towards the swimming pond and the lawn amphitheatre. A bit further down, you’ll come across a tennis court with a brand-new pavilion attached, which also serves as a resting point.
A rough grass area beautifully frames the garden and trees, such as crab apples and flowering dogwoods, seamlessly integrating the garden with the surrounding landscape.
