Design Consultation Professionals in Pocklington, East Riding of Yorkshire

“We initially approached Garden Designer Matt Haddon early in 2013 when our house was in the early stages of construction. He very carefully listened to our brief and gave us initial outlying designs, measuring, taking soil samples etc. We had thought that we would use his expertise to plan, design, and layout the new garden (we'd do the work) but we found him so knowledgeable, and amenable that we asked him to do the work for us. The planting is exquisite, we back onto open countryside and we wanted to have an extension of the country feel, making it a haven for birds, bees and nectar loving insects. Matt has done just that, our garden is full of colour, contrast, fruit and all manner of wonderful plants and tress - all carefully chosen for our soil type and aspect. Matt planned the garden with interest all year round and came back in October of this year to finalise next years spring bulbs. I cannot recommend Matt highly enough, our garden has been an investment and wonderful complement to our house. Matt has even left us with a comprehensive plant care plan, so that we know how to care for the plants he has chosen, now whilst we are not amateur gardeners, it is helpful to know sometimes if a particular plant or shrub needs cutting back hard in October or March! We are happy to recommend Matt 100% so if you are looking for garden design in East Yorkshire, or beyond, do give him a call. Matt was, I believe an arborist/trees specialist before he became a Garden Designer and we saw his award winning stand at the Harrogate Garden Show this year so we are very happy to be part of his successful portfolio of garden designs and landscaping work.”

“Choosing Emily to design our garden was one of our best decisions ever. From the outset Emily listened attentively to our brief and came up with some great creative suggestions which reflected exactly what we had hoped our garden would look like. The garden has been transformed from a typical bland lawned garden found in a new build property - front, back and sides - into the most amazing and magical space. It now has several separate themed areas to the garden each having a fabulous and practical living space that allows you to soak up all the colours and textures and fragrances which is made even more immersive by the thoughtful succession planting which provides interest throughout the year. Now there’s a home for a hedgehog and the birds, butterflies, bees, and insects that now call our garden home in our small yet perfect wildlife haven. Emily is not only super talented, but she is also charming to work with and made the process of designing our garden a very enjoyable experience. We still can’t believe this really is our garden it’s so wonderful in all lights of day and incredibly beautiful. We spend every minute we can in the garden and are so looking forward to seeing it mature – it’s surpassed our wildest dreams!” We have had so many wonderful complements from family friends & neighbours. Special thanks also to Emily’s other half Liam, his dad and not forgetting the fantastic landscapers Gareth and Jack ( Backhouse Construction & Landscaping Ltd.) who meticulously constructed the garden We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Emily to design and oversee the building of your new dream garden – we can confidently say “you will not be disappointed”. Thanks Emily Loretta and Mark”
