Description:
Claremont is an eclectic garden created over the past 18 years. Before the Owners moved in it was just grass with a few rhododendrons. The garden has three areas, with various herbaceous borders to the front, some hostas from the Owners' collection to the side - in all the garden contains over 150 hostas, and more herbaceous borders plus a newly created stumpery to the rear. There are three ponds (one very large), a rockery, a dovecot, rose patio and a few interesting trees including a grand monkey puzzle. Even though the garden is situated only two minutes from Junction 4 of the M8 it is yet an idyllic peaceful oasis.
Directions: Take the M8 and leave at Junction 4 heading for Whitburn. At the first set of traffic lights turn right for Whitburn. After only 100 metres turn first right at a slightly hidden turning with bollards, come straight down, without turning, to the bottom of the hill to Claremont. The house name is on the small pillar to the right.
