Oakwood Gardens Estate
Originally a blank slate of fields, overgrowth, and a century-old barn, this land has transformed over decades into the lush, layered estate now known as Oakwood Gardens. Guided by vision, creativity, and a deep love of landscape design, every element has been shaped with care—from restored natural habitats to garden rooms inspired by travels around the world.

Explore the Gardens
Inspired by renowned gardens across Europe and North America, each space at Oakwood Gardens was designed to evoke a sense of place. From pencil sketches and research journals to walk-arounds with fellow garden enthusiasts, the estate took shape one garden room at a time—each one telling its own story through color, texture, and form.
Woodland Garden
“Woods are meant to be walked through not around” is a famous sign in the Lost Gardens of Heligan, in Cornwall.
We invite you to stroll through the woodland and watch the sunset.
Cottage Garden
The quintessential English flower garden was first created by tenants living in cottages and working on vast estates of the English gentry. Ours was inspired by Gravetye Manor in Sussex.
Cascading Waterfall
White Garden
A cascading waterfall adds nature’s music to the gardens. Listen to the calming sounds of the fountains in the gardens, and the stillness of the reflecting pool in the Sanctuary Garden.
Vita Sackville-West, the 20th century English poet, created a white garden in 1949 at Sissinghurst Castle Garden in Kent. It is so lovely it motivated us to create a small version of our own.
Sanctuary Garden
A garden should bring you in harmony with nature and quiet your soul. The Sanctuary Garden was created for just this purpose – moments of tranquility, reflection and thoughtfulness.
Water Garden
Prince Charles believes gardens need two things: rich soil and water. Our series of ponds and bogs were encouraged by visits to the Beth Chatto Garden in Sussex.
