I am very new to gardening and to be precise I have not long moved to a
house with a garden. I have noticed that during the Autumn and Winter when
it rains, and boy does it rain, there is one area of lawn and flower bed
that gets really boggy and water logged.

Please can anyone tell me the best way to get rid of this boggy area?

Others will tell you how to drain etc, but there is another way, how about a
Bog Garden. Use your apparent problem as an advantage.
Lots of interesting plants like boggy ground.
