The Gardens

Silverstream is a two acre english style country garden with lots of colour for much of the year.
 
Everchanging seasons provide an all year round haven for the abundant native bird life that have made the garden their home. A pretty stream meanders through the property providing a pleasant place to sit and enjoy the calming effect that running water can have.
 
The cottages have been placed to capture the full winter sun and enjoy their own individual views of the garden and surrounding mountains.

The gardens are featured once a year in the Districts Open Garden Weekend.
 
This year it is on 22nd and 23rd October.

Since opening in April 2005 many couples have enjoyed a stay with us. Some of the comments have been:

  • Total Privacy yet the luxury of being well looked after
  • The most relaxing time we have spent together in a long time.
  • A magical Weekend.
