A room with a view….and how to screen it!

Screening, Screening, Screening! With land at a premium and new houses often being built on top of each other the need for gardens to provide a level of screening is regularly towards the top of a design wish list….. We’re approaching 18 month at Little Acre and the majority of our efforts and time have […]

Every day’s a school day…..

As previously mentioned, time spent working on the garden at Little Acre has been somewhat lacking of late, partly on account of a whole lot of procrastinating but mainly due to gaining a bucket load of hands on experience working on Matt Childs Hampton Court show garden (see previous blogs part one & part two).

Whilst adding hedgerows, digging ponds, reinvigorating woodlands are all satisfying activities, they are all diversions from the fundamentals here at Little Acre. Although the front garden, paddock, kitchen garden and woodland are relative blank canvases (mass clearance aside), the main garden, in its prime, would have been a lush display of perennials, trees, shrubs and […]

Beautiful day, beautiful night! #fullmoomphotography #fullmoon #treeshadows #nightwalk #woods
Ooo I do love a bit of cedar cladding 😉....nice to see a design coming to life (torrential rain aside!). #gardendesign #gardentextures #cedarcladding #gardens #rainraingoaway
Gorgeous run across the heathland this morning. A light dusting of snow christened the ground as the rising sun danced patterns across the broken clouds allowing glimpses of the blue sky beneath. #stopandbreathe #morningrun #mindfulness #goodforthesoul #findpeaceinthelittlethings #startthedayright
Just to jump on the frost photo bandwagon.....grabbed the thermals and headed out into the heathland this morning. As Sunday mornings go there’s no better way to set you up for the day. Love how the gorse flowers come into their own amongst the frost, adding a much needed highlight to the landscape. #natureisawesome #sundaywalks #heathland #frostylandscape #frost #landscapephotography #gorse #winterflowers #stopandbreathe
