Sometime when you go to these houses the flowerbeds can be over by this time of the year but I've been extremely impressed to find that the houses we've visited recently have had some gorgeous beds full of vibrant colour, like this one.
You catch a glimpse of these borders as you approach the gate into the walled garden.
The beds were still full of colour when we visited at the beginning of September.
Unfortunately it was quite overcast when we visited , so you cannot quite see the vibrancy that was there.
The view of the area from the steps into the house.
Just seeing these photos again makes me want to go sit back in there.
lovely full borders

There is also an Orangery.

Thanks for sharing these photos Dee. I love looking at pretty gardens and enjoy our Open Gardens scheme here in Melbourne whenever we get a chance. Our own garden looks reasonable in winter, but suffers dreadfully under our summer sun.

We also love looking a gardens, alas we are more likely to have rain than too much sun. although we can get the odd couple of weeks of very hot weather :)
