Late autumn is a grand time to be in the Lake District. The colours are rich and glowing and when the sky is blue, and the lakes reflect all the stunning richness, it is a paradise on earth. Yes, the other seasons have their own beauty — freshness, sweetness and crisp diamond brilliance, but autumn is a dying with a promise of resurrection. Already spring buds are forming on shrubs and will remain until the warmth and light of spring awakens them to the joy of birdsong.

Thank you. Yes, we are blessed with a beautiful garden. Over the years we have added many flowering shrubs, which add brilliant colours to the variety and textures of the greenery. They also give ground cover to lessen the need for weeding.
