Discover the Tranquil Beauty of Our Garden at The Annexe As a passionate gardener, sharing the serene beauty of our grounds with guests at The Annexe brings me immense joy. When you stay with us, you're invited to stroll through the garden, admiring vibrant flowers and observing graceful fish in our Koi pond or the darting newts and dragonflies in our wildlife pond. It's a peaceful spot to unwind, listen to the birds, and soak in nature's calm. Recently, we opened our garden to the public, and the praise for its beauty was overwhelming. The air was thick with the perfume of roses, then in glorious bloom. Guests also love our friendly chickens and the fresh eggs they provide—a true taste of the countryside! As past guests like Alex, Jennifer, Cath, and Korin have raved, the garden truly is a highlight, offering peace and beauty in every season. There's always something special to see, no matter the time of year. Come experience this tranquil escape for yourself!
