Comments (5)Yes thats a great choice. Its amazing how much these things influence us in later life. The transformation that took place in Max's bedroom was almost as amazing as the ultimate forest. I think this is why I love seeing the transformation of a garden nearly as much as the end result....See MoreInspiration for an unused area of garden
Comments (9)Hi Vanessa, The idea using the space for an outdoor seating is a greta one, but rather than plants in pots, which can be very high maintenance, why not build some raised beds, so that you can have planting around the seating area. This would make the area feel more cosy and defined within the overall garden. A fire pit in the middle would work really well, but this could simply be a square or circular area with some a trim of fire bricks and a base of sand or hardcore which you could light your fire on top of. Sometimes simple fire pits are the best! Good luck look forward to hearing what you do....See MoreGarden inspiration for small garden combined with driveway?
Comments (18)I need to resurrect this thread! So 2 years on we've completed all of the downstairs internal work, and knocked down the garage. We spread some grass seed, and there is now a garden space where once sat the garage. We did have a builder booked in for rebuilding the garage to the side of the house, and planned to add some decking where the patio doors are along the back of the house!/wall maybe, but now the builder has cancelled and is returning our cash, we're therefore reallocating funds to a much needed upstairs bathroom instead. I wonder if there are any budget friendly suggestions and ideas to make an area that will hold gardening tools/provide cover for my partner to do his hobbies by the side of the house? It's a wall then huge hedge beyond that which is directly parallel with a footpath and road on the other side. I thought about a shed but would the hedge not be impossible to cut and would it rot quicker, plus would the roots die off? We need to keep the hedge or have some privacy from the road, but equally need a place to store and use the space at the side. Thoughts?...See MoreGarden inspiration please…
Comments (4)Hi, what are you thinking of using for the front path - colour / type of paving as that will affect the style / look of the rest of the garden. I’d be tempted to leave some of the hedging as it does at least delineate your boundary. In terms of digging out a planting area under your window - if it’s too small it won’t be worth it as the plants won’t have much impact. It might be worth looking at other gardens in the street to see what works with other similar styles of property....See Morehedgehog99
