Country Garden


Design Brief

To create a traditional garden with areas for entertainment and children to play.

Before
An overgrown field with an old barn and lots of varying contours. A good mixed hedgerow formed the boundary and with a cluster of plum trees created a balanced blank canvas.

Solution
The stone from the barn was reused to build the main retaining wall creating a large open level lawn area with sweeping mixed borders blending back into the natural contours. An evergreen hedge will split the garden with a rose pergola flanked by lavender leading into the other 'room'. A wildlife pond with a viewing deck nestles into the shade of the plum trees. The pebble boardwalk area links the swimming pool to the wild flower area.
