Amersham Entertaining Garden

A medium sized country garden was transformed to create plenty of areas for relaxed entertaining in the garden, including dining terrace, raised fire terrace, and upper deck covered by a bioclimatic pergola, with dining space under cover and featuring a bespoke outdoor kitchen. Further spaces include a large lawn, curving path through naturalistic perennial planting, striking trees and acers, new automated gates, an Alitex greenhouse and new planting beds.
