    Well written book with lots of pictures of places you could spend your days reading and dreaming in. Had tried to find similar structures online (before reading a review of this book) when we were building a garden house…ended up designing my own…only sorry I did not have this book before we built. I do love my garden house but found so many I would rather have had.Highly recommend for those who have a passion for their gardens.
