Carole Berryman Design

I have worked with Carole for the last two years on a project in Staveley, renovating a 19th century cottage, and I cant express how happy myself and my wife are with the finished project. Carole's eye for detail regarding all things, including the choice of furniture, paint colours, art work for the walls, bedding, blinds and curtains, flooring, tilling is absolutely amazing, we couldn't be happier with how it has turned out. There is not one thing over the two years we have worked together that I can say I would change. Carole has also designed our front garden, with ideas I would never have thought of. We will be working with Carole again early next year on another garden design. If you are thinking of using an interior designer, to give you inspiration, look no further than Carole, you wont be disappointed.

Carole has done a fabulous job designing and planting a garden for us in the Lakes National Park. It overlooks one of the lakes so it needed a sensitive balanced design that blended an old formal garden into nature. The end result is excellent with gravel paths leading to a beautiful central pond and a summerhouse tucked into one corner. Blossom trees blend the garden into the tree line. It’s a very restful space and we are delighted with it. Carole was great in listening to our brief but also adding her own ideas.

Carole was wonderful, such a pleasure to work with. She helped design one of bedrooms in the B&B, we are really pleased with how it turned out…… absolutely stunning! I would have no hesitation in recommending Carole to anyone.

We asked Carole to help us with the decoration of our landing and stairs, we thought the use of wallpaper rather than the existing painted walls would add to the wow factor. This was certainly the case as we were blown away with Carole's choice of paper and wall colours! This has certainly completely lifted a now stunning Victorian staircase and landing. We have no hesitation in recommending Carole to anyone looking for an interior designer.

Carole was such a pleasure to work with. She really listened to our ideas, and produced something that came together so beautifully in a way we could never have done ourselves. I am so glad we worked with her, and we are delighted with the results

Carole's help and advice with our project has enabled us to achieve the look we wanted. Her suggestions, backed by her extensive design knowledge and her eye for detail, provided the expertise we lacked. We will not hesitate to contact Carole for our next project.

I can highly recommend Carole. She has the ability to interpret your requirements and transform them into something very special.

Ms Berryman redesigned the rear terrace to my house, according to a carefully designed plan. She contracted out the stonework but took personal responsibility for planting out the terrace in accordance with a pre-agreed design, showing the variety of plants, their colours and locations. The results have been very satisfactory and last summer I was able to enjoy the results of her work in peace, surrounded by colour and birdsong. I am very pleased.

Carole worked with us during the renovation of our new home. She listened and understood the brief from the start - capturing our taste perfectly. She was really responsive in terms of any questions we had and has been a pleasure to work with. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
