Kensington Estate

The Kensington estate is the residence of the Kesnington family in Oman.

Design
The grounds are lined with baked red tiles with numerous raised beds of roses, trimed hedges, and artfully arranged perennials. An English garden. Four large palms dotted each corner, shading a good portion of the garden.

In the center of the courtyard, a traditional Omani tiled fountain with an octagonal reflecting basin tinkled brightly. Safia and Kara used to swith there on hot and dusty days.
