Would suggest widening the path, and keep it straight BUT halfway along widen it to create an area .say 8'x8' and put large pots planted with shrubs in around the sides, so the eye is diverted from the straight line, but you can still walk the shortest route. Plant an interesting small tree to either side, in the lawn, say Liquidamber, Witch Hazel, maple, Magnolia ... something with seasonal interest/foliage/flowers. Put a large attractive lamp at end of path.

How about keeping the gravel as it is - it keeps the weeds down after all and is low maintenance but planting something like lavender through it - nice smelling, will soften the edges and required very little looking after except for a cutdown once a year - can't tell exact scale but 7-10 3l lavender plants planted through could make a big difference pretty quickly and inexpensively

Hello, this garden has so much potential, and although it is dull, it looks well cared for, so less prep before you get to the pretty stuff. first thing is to move the washing line, because it cuts the garden in half. I would have it running behind the shed to the tank thing, which I would screen with woven willow. I quite like the silvery fencing, but if you like things to look new, use a garden paint, but avoid the fake tan look. i would the clothe fences, starting with the fence to the left, use vine eyes and wire, to give plants something to hang onto. Next dig a border 1.5 metres wide. Try to slice the turves out neatly then stack them grass side down behind tank thing. They will compost down.Plant climbers every 1.5 metres down the garden. Plant them 45 cams out from the fence. I would use honeysuckle and small flowered clematis as they are easy, use 4 or 5 canes on each plant to fan the strands up to the wire, and tie them in with twine. Then I would beg everyone you know with a garden for spare plants to complete that border, they will be happy to help. for the second stage I would plant a tree just beyond the tank, where it will soften the outlines of the other houses, this could be incorporated into a border along that fence, along side tall, easy shrubs like kerria, lavatera and buddleja, if these grow wherever you are. then I would make generous beds abutting the patio, so that the lawn is at first a grass path before opening out into the garden. It looks sunny, so you have a wide choice, the beds could contain herbs, or grasses, or anything you like, but don't be afraid of height there as long as the plants you choose aren't too dense.. It is really boring to see the whole garden at once, and it will make the patio pretty, so you could even start with this, so you have something nice to look at. hope this helps

@Joanne Evans thank you! i would love to be able to make it that wide but we don’t have a huge garden and need to leave space for the boys to play. I will hopefully dig another small bed on the other side of the garden once I know i have done this one right. I am content with small plants and flowers, I just need flowers And plants Which can survive footballs etc!! I will google for a soil probe- will any do the job?
