Bottor cottage is a Georgian house and gardens located in the Dartmoor national park. Van Ellen + Sheryn completely renovated, modernised, and extended the home in 2017. Since then the gardens have been designed and re-landscaped by Alice Blount Designs, and we felt it was a great opportunity for a revisit.
The design uses a geometric grid of paths and planting to extend the lines of the architecture out into the wider garden setting. Beyond the lawns is a wilder Dartmoor landscape of woods, and of course the large granite outcrops that give the house its name.
We approached photographer George Sharman to photograph the building in its new setting. Here are some of our favourites:
