Landscape Architects and Garden Designers
Welcome to London Garden Designer, a friendly, personalised garden design company set up by qualified and experienced garden designer Sara Jane Rothwell. The London based design practice was established in 2002, where our portfolio of work ranges from small domestic London courtyards, roof terraces and gardens, to full-scale rural landscapes throughout the Uk and Europe. We also collaborate regularly with property developers and architects to produce Landscape plans for large scale developments and new builds. We pride ourselves on the good working relationships we establish and maintain with our clients. With an emphasis on quality and detail, here at London Garden Designer we work with you to create a distinctive, imaginative yet practical garden to suit your needs and budget, listening carefully to your requirements, ideas and wishes. The distinctive style of our gardens is very much reflective of our close working relationship with the client, ranging from classic to contemporary. We work with a select group of landscape contractors who carry out our design specifications to a very high standard. All the plants are sourced from specialist nurseries whose quality is assured and for a more instant effect we can bring in mature specimens. Our intention is to ensure a smooth and seamless process through from the initial design concept to the final completion of the garden build.

Sara Jane designed and supervised the build of our large, overgrown and steeply sloping garden. It is today a magical place that gives us great joy and quality of life. It was a challenging brief, basically a complete rebuild, but Sara Jane approached the job with curiousity and enthusiasm. We highly recommend her! She is hugely experienced and has a deep knowledge of plants, building materials and methods, and an unfaltering eye for aesthetics and details. In terms of managing the project, which was long term, she remained 100% engaged, was super efficient and quickly built a relationship of trust with both us as the client and the landscaper. We particularly appreciated her help with all those decisions that have to be taken in a project like this. She is also a lovely person to spend time with.

We needed a complete garden design, front and back, for the house we were building. The space was interesting, to say the least, and there were numerous challenges involved in the project. Sara Jane and her team worked with our architect and builder throughout the project, to ensure that her vision was realised and that at the same time, the necessary building regs were adhered to. I’m sure it can’t have been easy for her to juggle the demands by us, the client, and the builders, but throughout it all, she managed to do that!! Our new garden compliments the style of the house, and seamlessly blends inside and outside together. Sara Jane provided more than just a garden design, she has given us a beautiful space to enjoy and we are really grateful for all her hard work and creativity.

Our garden needed a complete overhaul and we therefore decided to seek the advice of a garden designer. Sara Jane’s design not only dealt with practical issues of being overlooked by a new build right at the end of our garden, but also created a visually stunning space. The view out into the garden in summer is incredible thanks to the vibrant colours and textures of Sara Jane’s planting scheme. Sara Jane was always professional and easy to deal with. We would not hesitate to recommend her.

Two years ago we had our garden designed by Sara Jane Rothwell from London Garden Design. She came up with a very clear plan, and presented it in 3D. We decided to go ahead with the project and she worked together with Ed Belderbos to build the garden. SaraJane kept a weekly check on the works. She chose every tree, and planted all the plants. The end-result is a beautiful garden, with year round colour and very interesting planting. Also the garden really turned out as promised. We are very happy with our garden, it is a real joy to see and sit/live in every day .

My husband and I have quite different ideas about many things, including how to transform our garden: I wanted to open out an overgrown space that felt much smaller than it is, whilst he enjoyed the existing maturity of the plants and trees. Sarah Jane was thoughtful and calm against this marital strife, and used her background in theatre design to keep both sides happy, with a beautiful design that maintained pockets of surprises but was far more user-friendly for us and our 2 young children. She's a lovely easygoing person who takes on board what the client is asking for whilst bringing along creativity and her own passion for colour, form and abundant nature. She has a mature understanding of what will work in different environments, and has created a fantastic garden for us.

Sarajane Rothwell and her team provided an excellent service. She is both rigorous and artistic in her design, confident in her vision but was also keen to interpret our ideas as fully as possible. It was a lovely experience and I would recommend her highly. The garden is beautiful and much admired.
