Legacy Grove Garden

As you step into this enchanting sanctuary, you're greeted by the weathered stones of an ancient sheepfold, standing as silent guardians of past times. Within these ancient walls stands a magnificent Mediterranean hackberry tree, its twisted branches reaching towards the sky like the outstretched arms of time itself.

 

In the gentle breeze, the leaves of the hackberry tree whisper secrets carried on the wind, tales of centuries past and the ever-changing seasons. Sunlight filters through the canopy above, casting dappled patterns of light and shadow upon the moss-covered ground.

 

Here, you can feel the weight of history and the timeless beauty of nature gathering in a peaceful and respectful place.

Cradlestone Garden

Welcome to Cradlestone Garden, a serene oasis nestled on the rugged terrain of our island home. Here, the soil, cradles the roots of verdant life, fostering a garden of unparalleled beauty and resilience. As you wander through Cradlestone Garden, you'll walk on the remains of an ancient vegetable garden, its soil tamed by generations of diligent hands.

 

Sunlight filters through the canopy above, casting a warm glow upon the weathered stones that punctuate the garden's pathways.

 

Despite the challenges posed by the rocky terrain, Cradlestone Garden thrives as a testament to the resilience of nature.

Water Garden

Our Water Garden is a place where every feature is harmoniously intertwined with the soothing presence of water. At the heart of this paradise lies a glittering swimming pool. Surrounded by fragrant rosemary bushes and guided by meticulously trimmed boxwood hedges, the garden exudes a sense of natural elegance and refinement.

In this verdant landscape, you'll also discover a hidden shower, offering a refreshing escape from the summer heat.

 

Under the majestic laurel trees, a wooden bench invites you to find comfort and serenity. On the outdoor terrace, you can unwind and soak in the peaceful atmosphere, or lounge on sunbeds while resting in the warmth of the sun.

 

Here, everything is subordinated to water — the central element that brings life and peace to the garden.
