A garden created to be kind to the countryside

Reclaimed brickwork to match the house defined each area with open ‘windows’ between the spaces. Two contrasting water features help to separate seating areas and open garden as well as providing a focal point and a home for wildlife.
Densely-planted curved boarders, raised beds and large planters bring all year colour and interest to the garden. Evergreen foliage, flowering shrubs and summer-blooming perennials deliver bursts of colour alongside mature specimen trees for privacy and dappled shady corners.
A beautiful timber pergola shelters the sophisticated outdoor kitchen and a smaller, green rooved gazebo provides welcome shade on the sunny terrace – the perfect place to switch off after a busy day.
Following a path under scented arches of climbers brings you to a raised dining space alongside a large patio leading off the kitchen. A formal circular pond breaks through the lines of this design to create an intimate haven to chill in during rare moments of peace, as well as a practical space for family meal times.
