'Minnaruh', a 1920s era cottage hidden by trees and shrubs was once owned by an opera singer and was a smart setting for dinner parties during the 1930s and '40s. Today, it's perhaps best known for its lush garden, lovingly tended by owners, John and Jenny Shaw. "It's not a show garden and we just accept the seasonal nature of it ... In summer it's cool and green - you drive into a shady oasis," says John. Pictured here are rhododendrons that are anywhere from 30 to 60 years old.
