Organic Gardening Professionals in Shipton under Wychwood, Oxfordshire

“Completed a difficult design incorporating sustainable materials giving us the confidence to use Insideout on another project at the rear of the house. A job well done!”

“Totally professional, courteous team covering all the skills / bases. It has been a pleasure working with Nick and the team over nearly three years maintaining my garden.”

“I cannot recommend Kirsty and her team at George-Stone Gardens Limited highly enough. A few years ago we had them in to redesign our back garden, install a composite deck and bridge as well as erect a gazebo. They were amazingly polite and efficient and did an amazing job. We are still loving the job they did and would have them do more when the time comes.”

“Fabio is a horticulturalist who really knows what he is doing and works collaboratively to ensure we are happy with the work he does at each visit including new planting and placement . He is now a regular visitor to our garden and it has made an enormous difference to our enjoyment of the garden and the view from our house.”

“We are absolutely delighted with the summer house and garden landscaping that Hadingham Kirk did for us (completed in 2018). They provided a professional service and a quality build. The craftsmanship is superb and it was a pleasure to deal with them.”

“Our narrow townhouse garden - we're in a Victorian terrace - has to work pretty hard. We wanted a beautiful garden - naturalistic, relaxing - but also one that our three children could enjoy; and somewhere we could work, in the garden studio. Angus's design is fantastically clever, easy to live with and we absolutely love it. We get so much pleasure from our garden on a daily basis - and it's transformed the view from the house. Responsive and creative, we highly recommend ATD. If we ever moved house - and garden - we'd use them again without hesitation.”

“I asked Briony from Bee's Gardens to help me create a town garden from scratch. I had a good idea of the kind of design I wanted but needed someone to create a working technical landscape plan for the builders. With her designers eye Briony took my ideas and sympathetically altered them to come up with a brief which suited and enhanced the space much more than the original sketch. I found it very difficult to envisage a garden in a space where nothing existed and the 3D plans were a huge help in making everything come alive. I didn't need a planting plan but Briony's beautiful mood boards were an inspiration which fed into the final plant and tree choices. We have been delighted with the garden as it has settled in this summer and the design has been much admired. I never thought the project would turn out so well.”

“I have lost count of the number of people who have delighted in the garden that Doug designed and created for me in 2017 - passers by, who have seen the front garden, often stop and ask if they can come round the back to have a look. I even get notes through the door saying how much people enjoy looking at the front garden alone! It has been a joy to watch it develop and there is nothing I would change about it. When Doug first came to look the old walled cottage garden was full of builders rubble, brambles and weeds. Doug listened to my ideas and then came up with a design that incorporated them and so much more. Each area of the garden is full of interest and the planting gives variety and colour all year round. It is accessible for the disabled guests that I have to stay and attracts bees, birds and butterflies. It is completely in keeping with the age of the house and Doug was careful to preserve some of the old features such as the 100 yr old pear tree. He also introduced new fruit trees, a fruit cage and raised beds. The garden is imaginatively and pleasingly divided into sections and seating areas. This makes it easy to manage as I never feel overwhelmed by how much gardening there is to do and can work in sections. In one corner we can sit and enjoy the evening sun - at the moment next to the Fig tree, Ceanothus and Aliums and later beside the Agapanthus, which was the star of the old garden and is enjoying shining again. The patio area outside the bifold kitchen doors and leading to the garden gets the sun earlier in the day, has a garden room which Doug installed opening onto it and provides a wonderful area for parties with string lighting that Doug suggested above on summer evenings. The house had suffered from flooding in the past and Doug thoroughly discussed management options with me and incorporated an incline into the patio which drains into a soakaway. No problems since! My neighbour's little girl calls our garden 'the secret garden' as she loves it so much and so do we. Doug is knowledgeable, polite, collaborative, thoughtful, creative, imaginative and practical - he was able to take my clumsy ideas and turn then into something that exceeded my expectations and will bring us pleasure for years to come. It is also helpful to know that he remains on hand for advice as the garden develops. The project was completed to time and on budget and to a very high quality.”
