Come to England!

A fairy-tale cottage in Lyndhurst, New Forest, Hampshire charmingly named ‘Beehive Cottage’. Originally named Northerwood Cottage, this adorable abode was probably built in 1833, to house James Young, the newly appointed gardener of the adjoining Northerwood estate. In ‘Seats of the Nobility and Gentry of 1833’ is an entry for Northerwood House that says: ‘The pleasure grounds are kept with great care by Mr. J. Young, a Scots artist of great skill, zeal and activity.’

I can imagine how good a gardener Mr. Young must have been to be given the used of such a house.
