  • Alasdair Cameron spends most of his time designing gardens for other people via his company Cameron Landscapes & Gardens, but his own rural plot in Devon exerts a strong pull. Over a decade, he has transformed it from farmyard and field into a charming family garden that feels rooted in its rural landscape. ‘The aim was for the garden to melt seamlessly into the landscape, using borrowed and framed views to enhance the atmosphere,' he says. Here he and his wife Tor give us a tour of the gardens, from the new meadows to the productive kitchen gardens.

    “10-11 year olds, sort of traipsing through the borders to get a football…you just have to take a blind eye because it’s that interaction which is so special.” Love this. Good reminder.

    The garden is gorgeous, I also liked the ecological, water-saving aspects of it.
    A very likeable family!

    What strikes me that in England there are so many men interested in gardening, here in Norway it is the total opposite. I find it very interesting.

    As an Aussie backpacker I worked for Alasdair in Chelsea circa 2000... great to see this garden and funny that I am watching it on my own little farm with similar elements. A lovely garden and inspiration. B

    Living in a city I long for an escape to the country one day & look out to wild flower meadows & greenery. This was a beautiful reminder of how wonderful life can be. The horse at the end was such a treat.

    Beautiful.....and it's just the garden. Hoping there is a video of the interior . A home in the country...or just a bit more rural might help me to forget what's going on in DC at this time. Or......I can just keep traveling.....Thank you for sharing. The carrots look delicious .

    Impressive! Kudos to them for all they are doing for the environment and our planet earth.
    Would have appreciated an idea of how big their garden is - also a simple map or drawing of it, to help understand the pieces of it.
    Hats off to the owners!

    I too have borrowed landscape out back which has made a lovely backdrop! So many buildings and land surroundings in my area have certainly went to meadows. Were all doing our part!

    Lovely garden, I liked the diffrent rooms and how/ why they created them, thinking of so many aspekts. I also love the variety of the plants but it seems to be hard work, too.

    The garden looks beautiful. BUT I can't believe it's low maintenance or that any flower borders look after themselves. In my garden weeds look after themselves and help themselves to any spot of soil hahaha! To have such neat rows of parsley the owners probably need to do weekly weeding.

    Mr David Nicholls, deputy editor of ‘House and Garden’ (UK), designed a pictograph of stick-figure corpses arranged in a numbered grid of columns and rows. “Connect the Jews!” was his joke. Ask him about it. Ask him if it’s true. Because it is. That’s the kind of person who’s rating your bedsheets.
