Services
Garden Design
Garden Design services focus on creating bespoke outdoor spaces that blend functionality with aesthetics. Using 3D visualisation and technical precision, each project addresses unique site challenges while reflecting client lifestyles. The process includes concept development, construction planning, and planting schemes to ensure year-round usability.
Sloping Garden Design
Specialised Sloping Garden Design transforms steep or uneven sites into structured, accessible spaces. Techniques include retaining walls, terracing, and strategic planting to stabilise slopes while enhancing visual appeal and practical use for residential or commercial properties.
Planting Design
Planting Design services create dynamic, seasonally varied landscapes using carefully selected flora. Designs incorporate texture, colour, and growth patterns to complement hard landscaping elements, ensuring ecological balance and low-maintenance beauty tailored to the property's environment.
Project Management
Project Management ensures seamless execution of garden designs from concept to completion. This includes coordinating contractors, monitoring timelines and budgets, and conducting site visits to maintain design integrity and address challenges during construction phases.
3-D Visualisation
3-D Visualisation provides realistic digital models of proposed gardens, allowing clients to explore spatial relationships and material choices before construction. This technology aids in refining designs to meet expectations and avoid costly adjustments during implementation.

Linsey re-designed our garden to be a wonderful space that blends seamlessly from our house to the outdoor space. Its added the wow factor to the house and we've received so many compliments since its been built. She was a pleasure to work with, extremely professional and with meticulous attention to detail. I would have no hesitation in recommending her.

We first met Linsey 12 years ago when she and a few others were invited to submit plans for our tiny, sloping back garden. Linsey got the contract because of her imagination, knowledge, and personality. Her plans still give us great joy. Also, the fact that she is still willing to continue giving advice is positive reason to recommend her to many other potential clients. David and Anne Lee

Linsey's Garden Design workshop at the Housebuilding and Renovating Centre in Swindon on 14th September was well worth attending. Linsey is an inspiring trainer and it was a relaxed and friendly day with lots of opportunities to ask questions. There was a lot of information but Linsey provided notes by email afterwards which I appreciated very much. The practical sessions with lots of discussion and feedback were particularly valuable. Many thanks Linsey!

Linsey did a wonderful job re-designing our garden. We had a sloping, slightly odd shaped garden and she came back with a wonderful design with a semi-circular patio and dropped semi-circular path which is now complete and looks fantastic. Was really worth the investment to get Linsey's help.

When we moved to our new house, with a beautifully landscaped garden designed by Linsey, I was totally daunted by the thought of looking after it. Linsey was happy to come and run through the design and planting plan. Having followed a few simple tips from a true expert, with an easy and helpful style, meeting me at my level, it is now coming to life, in the spring, and giving us a wonderful outlook to our striking garden.

Linsey can transform any hopeless outdoor space into an absolute gem that you will enjoy and be very proud of. We had a very unusual and specific brief and Linsey has absolutely delivered. Her drawings, plans and technical spec were spot on considering that most of the garden was so overgrown when she arrived on site to survey. She has also helped us to find the right landscape contractor who were a joy to work with. We are absolutely delighted with the result.
Professional, talented, very creative and with very high standards, Linsey will blow you away with her design and once her vision is
