GARDENS
One of the particular feature of Laburnam Cottage are the beautiful well stocked and maintained landscaped gardens that will delight a keen horticulturalist. A large proportion of the gardens sit at the front of the cottage with a south and westerly sunny aspect and the driveway approached large round raised granite rockeries on either side and these are well stocked with a wide variety of plants and shrubs and to the right, a pedestrian gate leads onto a crazy paved pathway and patio which spans the front of the cottage and provides a lovely sheltered seating area to enjoy the best parts of the day through to sunset. To the left hand side of the driveway you will see shallow crazy paved steps which bisect gently sloping lawns that are retained by random granite walls and you will see the lovely Laburnam tree where the cottage very aptly takes its name. Well stocked flowerbeds with plants, shrubs and trees provide a colourful backdrop and shelter. A gravelled pathway runs alongside the cottage past further raised gardens again with stone retaining walls and this continues around to the rear of the cottage. These private gardens enjoy plenty of morning sunshine and offer timber trellis work and return gate to the front, shaped lawns surrounded by well stocked flowerbeds, a circular paved patio which is a great place to relax and entertain, steps leads to the top gravelled pathway and from here, delightful views across to open countryside and light woodland can be enjoyed.
