...Torrecchia 

Garden Designer:  Stuart Barfoot

Stuart is a man after my own heart to be sure.  I love his design aesthetic.  Romantic and rambling, it is one awe-inspiring vignette after another.  Really breath-taking.  Skillfully hidden is the planning and dedication it takes to achieve a garden such as this...orchestrating the seemingly effortless balance between architecture and nature, order and chaos.  
Bravo, Maestro Barfoot.  Bravo! 

P.S.  When can I come for a visit?
