Garden Entertaining


The main dining area is enveloped by the garden with a feature pergola soon to be adorned with classic English Roses as the garden develops. Protected from the lawn beyond and a spot of football by a low clipped hedge. Garden lighting also features in this area allowing the space to be used through into the evening for entertaining friends or a simple family BBQ and get-together. Within reach of the kitchen, this dining area becomes a wonderful space for entertaining guests and provides a statement moment as you enter the garden.

Garden Views


Views created through the garden, like this one from a secluded sitting spot under the cover of some beautiful old trees, create interest, direction, and purpose through the garden, providing destinations and moments of calm to visit. From this spot you can enjoy the view back towards the stunning listed property and enjoy a moment of peace away from a busy home life, undisturbed in this space.


Newly planted trees, hedges & herbaceous planting provide abundant habitat & food for garden wildlife

Garden Destinations


This cosy fireplace area gives our clients somewhere to rest after dinner, or a purpose to explore outside when food isn't on the menu- a few drinks and marshmallows perhaps? Somewhere to read a book hidden from the world at the back of the garden space, surrounded by nature where the sounds of the world are deafened by the abundant planting and soft cosy chairs. A perfect spot for a cup of tea... Or a G&T!

"I have absolutely loved working with Amber. We decided to use a garden designer as we don't know enough about plants, what they like and where they should go, and also how to put them together. The process of working with Amber has been amazing - she's talked us through our likes and dislikes, come back with some initial ideas, which between us we've solidified into a final design. She guided us with mood boards, plant ideas, garden structure and has looked at every element of the design, including lighting. The drawings are so through and professional and she's given us copies which show how the plants will look in flower, evergreen and separate drawings for the structures, plus suggestions on materials, lights and everything! I had no understanding of how involved the process would be but Amber's knowledge, professionalism and enthusiasm has made working with her an absolute pleasure. I can't recommend her highly enough and can't wait to see our garden come to life!"
