Just around the corner from Merriments is Pashley Manor, a private garden plonked on the border of East Sussex and Kent. It is a wonderful garden and seems to have quite ‘good bones’, as they so often say about Hidcote, but I would like to visit again earlier in the year when the planting is closer to its peak!

| The house is clad in a great myriad of greenery. Quite stunning! |

| The rose garden was looking somewhat tired but the structure is beautifully laid out |

| When I wandered through this gate… |

| I certainly did not expect to find this! Enticing to say the least but it was unfortunately too cold to take a dip. The triangle structure to the left is their plant house |
 |
| Inside a Cobaea scandens has reached fruiting stage, and presumably seed will be harvested when the pod ripens here in the warmth |

The structure of the rose garden is wonderful. Who needs roses when you have box cubes and a statue?
Completely agree Janet, a perfectly proportioned space. It would be jolly exciting to see this same scene in January, covered in snow!
That photo of the cobea seed is truly remarkable! Nice work!
