The Old Chapel, Hindolveston

Created for guests at this beautifully converted 19th-century Methodist chapel, now a luxury four-star holiday retreat, this garden is a tranquil space designed for relaxation and reflection.

Showcasing the thoughtful use of reclaimed and locally sourced materials, the garden blends seamlessly with the building’s brick-and-flint heritage. A path made from weathered railway sleepers leads to a peaceful wildlife pond, framed by gravel planting chosen for its low-maintenance charm and year-round interest.

The patio area is a highlight, paved with reclaimed paments and stable bricks salvaged from a nearby barn. Flint cobbles, unearthed during the build, have been repurposed to add texture and echo the chapel’s original features.

Every element of the garden complements the chapel’s historic character and its idyllic Norfolk setting—offering visitors a peaceful escape in a space that feels rooted in its surroundings.
