My goodness, how lucky you are to have such a large garden, and you really have done a wonderful job creating the various areas. Thanks for showing us around
What can I say! WOW! As a gardener, I know the effort that is required to garden, it is HUGE💪💪You have made an ecosystem in your backyard. Lovely to see the hiding frog, the insects flying around and hearing the birds 🐞Good idea in catching the water from your greenhouse roof. The use of the egg cartons to hold the growing strawberries off the dirt whilst they ripen, simple but very effective. So nice that your vision and tremendous hard work has been realised and you have a very beautiful, secluded, productive garden which would enrich your lives. Very cute seeing Humphrey enjoying the garden and the food it grows 🐶
Ah, thank you! Yes, it's been hard work but enjoyable at the same time. We didn't see many insects or birds when we first moved in but now there is often a meeting of feathered friends in the kitchen garden. It's fascinating to watch.
Your “secret garden” is more a collection of garden rooms, each one unique and yet cohesive. You are very lucky to have old planters and pots where you live. Here in the US I once had a single source of old planters from the UK, but they closed. Now I have to drive long distances to find anything decent, or be content to buy Chinese (which I abhor). You have a beautiful home and gardens!
Thank you! How frustrating to have your source close down. I have two architectural antique yards I visit regularly but otherwise I usually have to order online.
Such a beautiful garden. What a bountiful harvest as well of strawberries and cauliflower. I think Humphrey is enjoying his role as “best supporting actor” 😉.
You have created a wonderful garden… just lovely. I’m in the states where we have yet to catch on to the idea of garden rooms. But I can see this is exactly what my garden needs. Thank you for sharing your process, I’m not quite sure how I will do it but this is my garden goal! Thank you so much for sharing your garden, I’m completely inspired. 🌺
I’ve said it before but I love your garden and home. And the birds. The sound is amazing. I live on our sheep farm in Australia and our birds don’t sound like yours. We have Magpies, sparrows, Willy Wagtails and a family of Blue Wrens. We live in a dry part of Australia and there are times I have to let things die in my garden because we just don’t have enough water especially in a drought
I grew up in Australia and agree that the birds sound different. I can start watching something and hear the birds and think to myself - ah, this is being filmed in Australia. We lived on a property during a drought and I remember scooping water from wherever I could to try and keep one potted plant alive. Thank you for reminding me how lucky we are to be having a mild and rainy summer.
Lovely! I subscribed and look forward to watching more. I too am trying to create garden rooms on my property. The ones closer to the residence have a bit more “formality” in terms of edging and walkways (stones, pavers) and plantings that are proportional to humans walking through including a pollinator garden along the front walk. The farther garden rooms have progressively less formality (edging is railroad ties or simply logs and grassy pathways). The next grouping further away have larger plantings including a shade garden. Farther beyond that, we are lucky to have fully wild areas out to the edge of the property that I leave entirely alone. Deer bed down at night in those areas so I do not wish to disturb them. Massachusetts, USA
This was so beautiful to watch. I loved every second and I really hope you will film the whole garden at different times of the year so we can all watch it evolve over the years. It's beautiful 😍
Thank you for your lovely comment. I would be delighted to show you the garden as it grows. I imagine autumn being beautiful when the trees are a bit bigger.
I especially love your kitchen garden, with wooden beds. May I ask, what is the size of the vegetable beds? They look just perfect. Those strawberries looks very tempting 😍
Hi, the strawberry beds are 90cm wide and 360cm long. They are a great size. I find the ones in the other garden a little too wide but am restricted by the pathways we need.
I am only 8 minutes into this latest video and WOW what a transformation! You both have worked so hard to create a beautiful haven in which to relax in. I am amazed at how quick the hedge has grown to shield you from the nearby houses and provide privacy. Two years ago I had my little garden in my cottage transformed by having it landscaped from mismatched slabs etc and even within a two year timescale evergreen shrubs have doubled in size. You have encouraged me to move forward and invest in more plants but unfortunately, it will have to wait until next year. Right, back to the rest of the video.... Sophie.
Thank you, Sophie - you made me laugh when you mentioned stopping the video to comment. A good thing about doing things slowly is that there is time to grow from seed, make divisions, and take cuttings. I'm trying to propagate from cuttings for the first time this year. I hope you enjoyed the rest of the video ;-)
An absolutely stunning garden. You are very talented. The design & layout is wonderful & full of interest at every corner & room you enter. We are working on a neglected uninteresting garden here in New Zealand. I hope it will look as beautiful as what you are creating. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much! It's hard work tackling neglect in a garden. I hope it goes well and you get to the stage of lush foliage and beautiful flowers soon.
Obrigado! Temos verões muito amenos, por isso às vezes é difícil fazer as flores florescerem antes do final da temporada. Gosto de admirar outros climas também.
Очень понравился ваш секретный сад,я тоже пробовала уложить камни в некоторых местах,но у нас под ними появляются муравьи!Благодарю за интересную прогулку!
What a magical place you have created. Everything is so beautiful and healthy. I live in the Sonoran desert in the US. so not much will grow but cactus 🌵 and know with climate change it is even hotter.
I've just looked at images of the Sonoran Desert and it looks stunning with the tall cactus. I can only imagine the heat. When we get 20C/68F here I'm melting in front of a fan. 🥵
After the morning, I watched it again in the afternoon, it was soul-soothing. Congratulations to! A nice, thorough, well-planned garden, and it matches the house.
Wow, thank you! I'm very pleased to hear you think the garden matches the house because that's what I was trying to achieve. Our house can look purple, so some colours just don't look right.
Just gorgeous. I wish I could do something like that but alas, my backyard is full of rocks I just can’t seem to dig out, and yet I am desperate to turn that area into something beautiful. Maybe one day. Thank you for sharing your garden with us.
Thank you! Feeling stuck with a space is frustrating...I usually turn to Pinterest for solutions. They would have examples of rockery style gardens but I'm not sure it would help if you're rocks are underneath the surface. I hope you get your beautiful space sooner rather than later.
Thank you! Having different spaces also seems less overwhelming - we can work on one area and feel accomplished and not see the other areas that are still a work in progress.
Thank you! The flower is called Queen Anne's Lace or Daucus Carota. Legend has it that Queen Anne lost 17 children, and she sewed to comfort herself and the tiny red drop that can be seen in the centre of the flower represents her pain. It blows in on the wind here.
Hi Claire, Your "Before & After" photos of your previous house's gardens showed stunning achievements of design & hard work. Where did you learn Carpentry?
Thank you! I'm not sure where I learnt to make things. When we lived in London, we had an amazing carpenter who was traditionally trained. I chatted with him about what he was doing so I probably picked stuff up from him, but usually I just come up with it in my head.
Your videos are awesome great ideas well orchestrated great planting ideas would love to see Q&A with you . Have you ever considered talking to your subscribers ? Also showing who you are , Your name and getting yourself more involved in your videos not just your hand but the whole you. Look at other creators copy their style I think more interaction you will gain more subscribers. If a person cannot read then they are lost following you. If you are shy when you do your first show yourself video you will overcome it. If is because how you look people will love you for your content and whole heartedly support you. Please these observations are genuine not because I am disrespectful in anyway but would like your channel to grow because your videos are great. Please try to apply my suggestions.
Thank you! Unfortunately, I don't know the name of the rose as it was already here when we bought the property. The gentle curl in the petals is beautiful and unlike any of the other roses that were planted in the garden.

a wonderful garden i hace 2 allotments next to each other hopefully in a week or tow my daugter might get the one next door.its huge we hope to make into a secret garden for her boys, oh by the way the first piece of music sounds like a guitar do you happen to know what is is please regards paul
I imagine an allotment would be a wonderful place to spend time as all of the neighbours would be gardeners too. The first song is called Frolic - the link in the description should provide further details if you would like any. Cheerio 😊
I love your videos, but I am not a letter to read the captions when they are on the left or right. Please put them mid screen or tell me how to fix the problem. I am watching on a tablet. Thanks. Vicki
Hi Vicki, I’m on an iPad and not having a problem seeing the text. You could turn on captions (in settings) and the text repeats across the bottom. Hope this helps. 🙂
Hi Vicky, thank you for letting me know about your issue seeing all the text. We checked the video on an iPad and there wasn't an issue, so I'm not too sure how it could be fixed.

Your videos are like Therapy. Thank you so much for sharing.

@@BoundaryRoad Thank you. I was planning of making them wider but perhaps 90 cm will be enough then.
You have been busy. I am impressed how you get it all done and the house renovation. Absolutely beautiful and inspiring.
Yes, always busy! 😊 I love it all though (except sanding) so none of it feels like work.
I love the "rusticness" of your wall with the stabilizing pots.😊
Just beautiful! thanks for sharing
i enjoyed the tour of your secret cottage garden and how you are creating it. It was relaxing feeling .Thank you for showing us your creation.
So glad you enjoyed it - thank you!

Wow. Beautiful. Truly a labor of love-and I mean it when I say labor! You are creating magic.
Yes, it definitely is labour-intensive! At least now we have a strategy that works for eliminating the invasive plants I can sleep at night. ;-)
Lindas plantas e adoro ver as flores de outros lugares, outros climas. Você tem um quintal grande para cuidar .Parabéns 😊
Obrigado! Temos verões muito amenos, por isso às vezes é difícil fazer as flores florescerem antes do final da temporada. Gosto de admirar outros climas também.
Beautiful garden!
Thank you!
Очень понравился ваш секретный сад,я тоже пробовала уложить камни в некоторых местах,но у нас под ними появляются муравьи!Благодарю за интересную прогулку!
Я рад, что вам понравилась экскурсия. Вы заставили меня понять, что я не вижу много муравьев - раньше я видел их в других местах, но не здесь.
Прекрасен Ваш сад! 🤩👍Камни, горшки, растения и пение птиц - всё выглядит очень гармонично! 💥👌Желаю ему цвести и радовать Вас своей красотой! 🌹😘
Спасибо за ваш прекрасный комментарий.
Your home is beautiful. Happy for you
Everything you could want😊 very pretty ,hard work also
So true!
Love it !
Как прекрасно! И какой это большой труд! Мое к вам почтение! Чувствую с какой огромной любовью сделан каждый уголок.❤😊
Спасибо за ваш прекрасный комментарий и мысли о том, что вы видите, и о работе, которая вкладывается в это. Это действительно ценно!

Привет ! Молодцы , сад у вас вырастит прекрасный , да и сейчас все выглядит интересно . Удачи ❤
Спасибо! Садоводство - это игра терпения. Я с нетерпением жду, когда что-то вырастет и заполнит пространство.
What a special place, simply beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful!
Love your garden. Would add a water feature to distract from the car noise
A very good suggestion, I hadn't thought of that! Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful, so much has changed in a year. 🪴🌺
Absolutely wonderful garden. Great inspiration as I want to create a secret garden too !
Thank you - good luck with your own garden.
Woo beautiful,
Your hard work has paid off. Simply lovely ❤❤❤❤
Thank you! 🤗
What you’ve done is simply amazing, so enchanting and cozy! Beautiful! Can’t wait for more inspiration.
Thank you so much!

Thank you! Having different spaces also seems less overwhelming - we can work on one area and feel accomplished and not see the other areas that are still a work in progress.
Love it all…
19:05 stunning! i mean the whole garden is, but this little nook is especially so!
Thank you! I'm looking forward to the jasmine growing over the top of the window in that area.
Amazing and so very beautiful. What is the name of the Flower that you picked and hung up to dry.
Thank you! The flower is called Queen Anne's Lace or Daucus Carota. The dried seed head looks lovely in Christmas wreaths.
I’m new to gardening, yours is absolutely beautiful. What is the tall white flower that you are drying? Thanks!
Thank you! The flower is called Queen Anne's Lace or Daucus Carota. Legend has it that Queen Anne lost 17 children, and she sewed to comfort herself and the tiny red drop that can be seen in the centre of the flower represents her pain. It blows in on the wind here.

Thank you! It is called Queen Anne's Lace or Daucus Carota. The seed heads look nice in Christmas arrangements.

What plant is weaving thru the railings @minute 0:37? Thanks.
Hello, I'm not sure as it is a self-seed plant growing out of our wall. It has little red berries in autumn.
