The fact that they have no less than five rose gardens is a clear indication that the owners of this old Cape manor house, the wife in particular, are rose lovers. At the entrance, you’re greeted by an oval-shaped garden with five different yellow roses planted in blocks. A series of terraces filled with pastel roses hugs the back of the house and a section devoted to red roses is embellished with arches. At the top of the slope, a hidden rose garden features a statue named Woman with Roses. Even on the boundary, a series of arches covered with pink roses connect the shade garden to an area consisting of indigenous plants.
