“Coorie gardens have a common trait: there will be at least one place that encourages reflection and peacefulness.
A coorie spot could be a garden grotto, blending into the scenery with trained climbers concealing its form or a basic summerhouse with space to sit.
A balcony with a comfortable chair where you can turn your face to the sun and read a book is a perfect coorie space.
Even a shared back court with a picnic bench can be dressed with lanterns and potted plants to conjure the feeling of coorie.
Some intrepid souls might like to string a hammock out to evoke the ultimate sense of downtime.”

“The word hammockable (describing two trees that are the perfect distance apart between which a hammock can be hung) is not in the dictionary, but it should be. [Of lying in hammocks]”
