Landscaping in Gloucestershire

Front garden was completely re-landscaped and new lines were created in order to compliment the property.. Limestone was used for the dry stone walls and new terraces. Numerous planting beds were created including a woodland garden bank.

We are delighted with the transformation of our front garden. Tom approached the work very methodically and the work site was always tidy and safe. The new dry stone walls were beautifully built using existing, recycled stone, blended in with new stone. All aspects of the work we asked Tom to do were carried out with skill and understanding of what we were aiming to achieve. We thoroughly recommend Barnwell Gardens.”

Wildlife friendly – Teddington

The brief was to create a wildlife friendly garden but can also be enjoyed by people. Hazel fencing was used to screen the vegetable garden and utility area. Planting was designed to provide year round interest and attract beneficial insects and supply birds with food and nesting material. A strip of wild flower meadow was created in the middle of the lawn. A drip pipe automatic irrigation system was installed which proved vital for the plants’ establishment and minimised the amount of water used.

We commissioned Tom to work on our garden. He transformed it into a real haven and the plants he selected have boosted our bird and butterfly numbers. The irrigation system he installed was a saving grace this summer. We are now the envy of our neighbours!.
