Family Pool GardenBuilt by Cobham Court Landscaping
This is a garden with it’s young family and fun at the heart of the design.
The front garden is open and fresh with soft billowing grasses and perennials softening the stone chipping drive. The heavy black timber gates reflect the style of the house and the bins are safely stowed behind cedar panelling. At the rear the garden opens out to a smart new terrace for table tennis and seating with wide steps set against the new glazed extension and paved with handmade Dutch clay pavers. The terrace is softened with raised beds and separate the space from the lower lawn and swimming pool garden. A pool house offers pool-side facilities with an outdoor shower tucked away to the side. A hammock is set back from the pool surrounded by a variety of lush evergreen foliage. The garden is divided into two further garden ‘rooms’ with swooping yew hedges adding a fun curved element to an otherwise rectilinear design. These hide the football pitch and vegetable garden with jumbo pots leading the eye down to the boldly painted blue timber greenhouse, Corten steel planters and netted golf practice area! The herbaceous plants with seasonal pops of colour add vibrancy to the contemporary grey tones of the hard landscape. A swing graces the mature horse chestnut tree… just made for the job.

Client testimonial:
"We came to Helen for our design because we knew she would be able to see the potential in the space. What was previously an unloved driveway to a freestanding 1930's garage has been transformed into a garden in its own right, connected seamlessly to other outdoor areas through the harmonious use of materials, shapes and planting. Investing in a professional design has made the whole plot seem bigger and has given us a wonderful social space. We are endlessly fascinated by the changing colours and textures of the plants that come into focus throughout the year. The garden is a work of art. Thank you Helen!"

Client testimonial:
“Helen was crucial to the success of our garden project. We hired Helen right at the start and she helped realise our wishes. Taking our aspirations and themes and crafting them into a workable solution. Her designs were impeccable and pretty much nailed what we were after straight away. We only had to do one real revision to the initial design and that was due to budget. Helen then guided us through the rest of the steps, developing tender documents, sending them out to local contractors and helping us evaluate them. Then when the project commenced Helen was consulting and advising from start to finish as we worked directly with the contractors. We wouldn’t have ended up with our dream garden if it were not for Helen and her expertise. We highly recommend her!” (Paul & Birthe, Mayford) |
