We have starred in our own personal episode of Escape to the county, after 6 month of searching we found our dream home.
A nightmare run up to exchange and completion saw us move into our new home before we had even completed on the sale, very risky i know but we needed to get on with our lives, we finally got to relocate across the country and start a fabulous new chapter in our lives.
I thought i would share a few garden pictures, we have an acre plot and the large front has a deep herb boarders raised with sleepers. The soil is crazy good here in Suffolk and every thing seems to grow 20 times better than normal, check out that rosemary!!!
Here is our back garden flipping enormous a great big green pitch, a blank canvas for us to work on over the years, top picture is from the bottom of the garden up to the house, and the bottom picture is from the top of the garden looking down.
Insert a happy dance here >>
The flowers have all died down and the grass browned and grown really really tall so we decided to cut it all down to see how big it was. It was big so big not even my wide angel could fit it all in and of course the guys had to pitch a tent and have been camping out ever since.
We have lots of work but loads of ideas to and cant wait to get going.
Wow, what a plot of land! It must be nice to have a blank canvas. I think that is the biggest rosemary bush I have ever seen, wonder what they put in the soil!? :)
ReplyDeleteWOAH! Hold the phone! That's massive - you lucky lady, perfect space to make more soap - by the way I must order some of that lemony stuff (charmingly technical as ever) as it's been awesome.
