Simply Garden Design

From beginning to end of the project Katie and the team she used were excellent. She quickly understood what the issues were with our strange shaped garden and our ambition for it. She created a stunning plan and when the time came to do the works she used an efficient and friendly company to do the landscaping. The team came in spot-on on budget and timeframe. 6 months on we couldn't be more delighted with our garden and driveway, it has been transformed from a self seeded scrubland to a beautiful extension of the house which we enjoy everyday. Thanks Katie!

We asked Katie to come up with a plan that would add colour and structure to our garden whilst retaining the established trees/shrubs that screen our boundaries, and also coping with a very heavy clay root bound soil. Not an easy task. The whole process from start to finish went smoothly. Katie has such a friendly, professional and knowledgable manner and her team of recommended landscapers, Burley Landscapes, were brilliant in bringing her designs and plans to life. Everything was completed on time and to schedule and we are now enjoying a garden full of new plants and colour and have received lots of compliments from visitors. The provision of the maintenance plan for the planting scheme is also a great addition and will help us to maintain the impact of the garden.

Katie and Jason recently transformed our garden, and we are delighted to say the least. Katie came up with a great design, giving us ideas that we had never even thought of, and Jason and his team worked very hard to make it look fantastic. They both made sure we were happy with what they were doing as they went along, and were very professional too. Now we have to make sure it is kept as nice as it looks right now! Thank you both.

We have been extremely pleased with the service we received from Katie and her landscaping team from start to finish. Katie is friendly and approachable and listened to the requirements we had for our garden and came up with a design that was perfect for what we needed as a family. Jason and his team are friendly and hard working and they got everything done within the specified timeframe and to a high standard. Our garden has been totally transformed and we really enjoy spending time there. We have had lots of compliments from friends and family and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Simply Garden Design.

I recently engaged Simply Garden Design to fully redesign the soft landscaping areas having seen some of their previous completed projects around our village. From the initial meeting, then design stage, plant selection, planting through to completion, I was kept fully briefed along the way. Katie worked closely with our hard landscape team which took the strain off me! It was the first time that I had undertaken such a project , Katie was helpful and supportive throughout and has given me a beautiful finished product plus ongoing advice when I panic that somethings not right. Now time to enjoy our lovely garden and the excitement of seeing it mature over the next few years

Couldn't be happier with the design that Katie created for our garden. She was able to bring to reality some of the ideas that we had, whilst weaving in ideas and twists that we just wouldn't have considered. Looking forward to Spring now, for the planting to really come to life. The team and individuals that Katie works with to turn the designs into reality are an excellent bunch too, and were a pleasure to have around the house whilst the project was underway (which was very important to me, given a young family - my 4 year old was genuinely sad to see them all leave!)

From the initial drawings we were so excited about our new garden and the finish product did not disappoint at all. Katie has created such a beautiful garden for us one that will just keep getting better with time once the trees mature and shrubs/bulbs grow. Jason and his team were just fantastic too. Always on time, excellent craftsman and impeccably tidy. Cannot recommend Katie and Jason enough.

Katie is a delight, listening to our ideas and translating these into a truly stunning garden. We have one part of the garden designed as a Alhambra style paved water garden. Another part of the garden is a traditional English country garden style with structure and planting for colour, texture and, most importantly, friendly for bees. Katie took the time to get to know us and help us with a garden that suits the house and its location. Not only are we delighted, but we also receive many compliments from passing walkers.

From the first meeting with Katie, we felt she really listened to us and our requirements for the garden which was relatively low maintenance. We had some ideas, but were very much open to suggestions. Plans were quickly drawn up and tweaked where necessary. The builders she uses are a great bunch of guys who are hard working and punctual. We were kept informed of any changes at all times. An excellent designer who has given us a garden we are delighted with.

Simply Garden Design transformed our old-fashioned, cluttered garden to a beautiful modern space. First, Katie discussed with us what we like & tried to find what would reflect our personalities & preferences. She went through every detail with us, she even sent us a list of each flower that will be planted with its maintenance routine. She was flexible and patient with some last minute changes. She answered every question and she had great ideas & thoughts every time we asked for her advice.

We asked Katie to redesign our back garden and make some small changes to our front garden. We knew what we didn't like in our existing garden, and had some specific requirements such as easy maintenance, the type of fencing and more colour. Katie incorporated our requirements and brought it all together with her ideas for a simpler, more modern design. Her knowledge of/recommendations for plants/trees that would grow best in specific places and different materials was excellent. Jason and hs team (Burley Landscapes) were hard-working and delivered the plan on time/to budget. Katie and all involved were very professional, personable and easy to deal with. Both Katie and Jason were fantastic and we're very pleased with the end result.

We had a problem front garden - a smallish sized, irregular plot which needed a complete overhaul and redesign. To complicate matters, it is north-facing and on an incline. Katie was unfazed by the task and made great suggestions for a stylish focal structure which would be in keeping with the house and the lane. We were involved at all stages of the design process, and Katie listened to our suggestions and built on our ideas. She was very responsive to our questions and flexible with amendments. She made suggestions for planting in line with our chosen colour scheme, and provided photos of all the chosen flowers and shrubs. Katie's team was first-rate: professionals who arrived on time, were really hard-working and polite, and removed every trace of rubbish. They worked flat out, and completed the job ahead of schedule. The garden work has been completed to a very high standard. We are very happy with the finished garden, and can't stop looking out of the window - something we never did before!
