Ilkley, West Yorkshire
The garden of this stone Victorian house falls steeply away towards the moor. A raised hardwood deck has turned the slope into a level terrace with one of the best views in Ilkley.
Thick balau boards run out from the kitchen doors to a sunken hot tub with a timber surround, edged with a frameless glass balustrade so nothing interrupts the view. Built in benches with cushions line one side.
Soft LED lights under the bench and along the steps make it just as good after dark.
