See from these case studies how unpromising or unloved gardens can be transformed into a unique, tailor-made space for everyone’s enjoyment for years to come.

I don’t design gardens which follow fads and fashions.  My philosophy is that a garden is an investment which grows and changes year on year and might need the occasional tweak but generally provides the owners with a beautiful view, a tranquil space or a place to experiment with colour and perhaps improve a knowledge of plants.  I think a garden should be like a work of art, ideally one in which the owners have had a hand so it is personal to them, in which you see something new every time you look at it.

The first step is to make an appointment for me to come and have a chat and see the garden.  In that hour or so I can gauge what it is you need and can then quote for as much or as little input as you want.

Sophie talked with us at length about any preferences we had and came back with a variety of schemes which we discussed before choosing the final one. She then drew the final scheme in beautiful detail, fit for framing. This was accompanied by a planting schedule which listed all the plants required with helpful descriptions. Her extensive knowledge of plants shone through. We contacted Sophie during the landscape work for useful advice and nothing was too much trouble for her. To say that the garden has been transformed would be a massive understatement and we have spent far more time enjoying both relaxing and working in the garden than we ever did before.
