lol-if you look carefully Anne Marie-you will see 2 patches in my lawn where Vegas's pee has killed the grass cause the sod favours these spots! He also knows that borders are off limits,but almost everything growing is robust enough to withstand him anyway.

These were taken a while ago but nothing has changed. It would take me too long to go round and take more pics.

This is the front lawn



The walled garden. This is rarely used and is more for formal functions etc. The borders are sectioned and planted according to colour.



This is the lawn next to the pool and in front of the pavillion and sauna. This is the seating area which is covered with honeysuckle and climbing roses.





Then there's the pool area



The vegetable garden



The courtyard



Then there's the paddocks and the field









There's also the stables and barns. This area currently houses two boats

Here's the front garden. As you can see we are in the process of clearing a lot of stuff out of it hence the pile of honeysuckle on the grass. It doesn't really get used so my plan is to remove some of the stone wall and put a drive in.


Here's the back garden. It used to end where the slabs stop and the grass starts. We bought what was a field and sold it off in lots to the neighbours. What you see here is the bit we kept. It's mainly grass but there's a few borders, greenhouse, shed, a chipped sitting area, climbing frame and swings. It goes down into the woods and there's also a stream. Hannah loves playing in the garden with her friends and the dogs like the space to run round and play.

Probably a lot of other names, but Ewing certainly isn't one of them

It looks bigger than it is in real life. The whole land in total is about 18 acres, and that includes an 11 acre field. To me, it's not really that big, but I guess I'm use to it.

Oh, is that all?

Lucky you Wolfie
