Further Description
  • Stephen Anderton: Times 9th August ?Gardens to Visit?Veddw House Only rarely does one come across a garden so ambitious and successful as the one at Veddw House. It is the work of Anne Wareham and Charles Hawes, made during the last fifteen years around a small agricultural worker?s cottage in the hills above Chepstow. Wherein ambitious? Well, this garden combines all the achievements of a great garden ? excellent relationships between house and garden and between the garden and its surroundings, a satisfying blend of formality and informality and of wildness and control, good use of colour and texture, and a distinct personality. Nor was this an easy place to make a garden: the site may have good views, but who would want to make their dream garden on a piece of land which slopes down northwards? It?s a hard trick to pull off, but how it succeeds! Go see it: pay that Severn bridge toll and be grateful.
