private garden

Exclusive outdoor space

A private garden is a cultivated outdoor space restricted to specific individuals, typically the property owner or residents, as opposed to public parks open to all.

The phrase emphasizes exclusivity and controlled access: The hotel guests enjoyed a private garden away from street noise.

In urban settings, a private garden often signals privilege or luxury.
