Rob produced a design which has transformed our garden and significantly improved the visual impact of our house. We were happy to trust his instinct and experience and he worked with us throughout to achieve an excellent result in keeping with our original aims. His friendliness, knowledge and helpfulness before and during during the project made a big difference.
It is also extremely reassuring to have someone to turn to for ongoing advice as the garden matures. I would thoroughly recommend Charlesworth Design.

Rob’s design for my garden is superb and I’m absolutely delighted with it. Rob really listened to what I wanted, which is a low maintenance, wildlife garden that I can really enjoy and he has carefully incorporated all of this within his design. With his creativity, expertise, knowledge and experience, he has designed something that brilliantly captures and enhances the unique spirit of my garden. It is excellent and I am very pleased to recommend Rob Frier and Charlesworth Design.

We contracted with Rob in the 3rd quarter of 2018 to produce designs for both our front drive and extensive rear garden. Rob has at all times been responsive and quick to help, even with the most minor of details. Upon an initial selection of designs for both the front and the rear, rob moved to complete a well thought out and detailed planting scheme.
The front garden consisted of producing a novel design using Marshall's block paving to fit in with a single attractive existing tree which we wished to keep.
The rear garden was completely reworked including a large entertaining area made from Millboard in front of bifold doors, corten steel panels, a pergola, a sunk pond, a central area which can be used for additional entertaining and finally a formal grassed area bounded by pleached trees.
We had difficulties with 6 of the initial bare root ball pleached trees which failed. Rob made extensive efforts to support us with the supplier in replacing these trees along with our landscape gardeners who replaced them for us without additional cost.
I would happily recommend Rob and I am very pleased with our choice of hiring a separate designer to landscaper.

I am delighted with my new garden, designed by Rob Frier from Charlesworth Design. Rob really listened to me and my requirements and has been really helpful during the construction of the garden. His experience and knowledge are very evident in all aspects of his work. My garden has been totally transformed, and I’m looking forward to seeing it grow.

We've recently had a garden design from Rob. We could not be happier with the way it's turned out. We had some tricky problems to resolve including replanting in a honey fungus infected plot. Rob listened to our hopes about how the garden would work and then created something that is way beyond what we could have even conceived. The ability to see a potential in a space and then mould that around our thoughts and his expertise is fantastic. We would strongly recommend him for any future project.

We have recently had our front garden redeveloped. We are very pleased with the result. The new garden was designed by Robert Frier of Charlesworth design. Robert was very helpful throughout the project. He has very wide knowledge regarding garden design and was always approachable and professional with us. We would recommend his company without hesitation. Have tried to upload before and after photos but not sure if this has been successful

Rob gave us an excellent design that fulfilled everything we have wanted for our garden. He took on board all our requirements and has exceeded our expectations - we now have a fabulous family space which will be well used. He also referred us to excellent garden contractors in Green Vision.
Many thanks Rob for our beautiful family garden.

Great work undertaken for our community sports and social club. Rob gave us four options to consider, and clearly explained the basis of these. He delivered the preferred option with more details sufficient for us to obtain competitive quotes. Work is expected to be undertaken in early 2018. Sketch provided is the Club's interpretation of Rob's design.

I worked with Rob on my garden redesign in Knutsford. It was a fabulous experience - Rob really listened to what I wanted as well as contributing many ideas and thoughts of his own. Then presented four different options, all of which would have been great but loved his three intersecting circle idea. A designer who really listens to his clients and preferences. After the design he helped to find a contractor and worked with them on the final planting. Highly recommended !

Commented: Just wanted to say I loved the compositionThanks for that Caroline, yes I too like it, the trick here I think is to keep it to the bare minimum. Less is more!

Commented: what are the border shrubs?Yes they like fairly fertile but well drained soil in full sun. The variety you saw was 'Hidcote' which spreads just over 2ft (75cm) Good luck

Commented: Cloud of paintWhile since we did this! but think it was Farrow and Ball Green Smoke.
I sometimes match the plants to the paintwork, it looks very good and is so simple to achieve.
