Description:
Restoration of a rare example of a Dutch Arts and Crafts garden (including rock garden) designed in 1912 and its orangery (1880) and associated greenhouses which form the nucleus of the garden. The garden was on the verge of vanishing due to a slow process of gradual neglect. Since the completion of the project the garden is open to the public for tourism and use at social functions, which guarantees a source of income for its sustainable maintenance in the years to come.
