Hitcham
A poolside garden with an oak-framed pool house, set beside a historic thatched cottage.
The Commission
A swimming pool garden in the grounds of a thatched Suffolk cottage. Pale natural stone runs right around the water, with broad steps leading down into the pool and the old brick chimney reflected on its surface.
At one end sits an oak-framed pool house under a hipped roof of handmade clay tiles, open on two sides for shade and outdoor cooking. Clipped topiary, box balls and generous borders soften the stone, and a brick archway leads through to the rest of the garden.
