Gardening by the sea can be a challenge but a well designed garden with all the added wind, salt and sometimes sand problems taken into account will make it much easier.

Gardens of all types need protection and especially coastal gardens and this can be provided by walls and fences but also importantly screening belts of sea weather tolerant shrubs and trees. These, with careful design can form part of the coastal garden look without obscuring valuable views but allowing all those less tolerant plants to be grown in their lee.

One advantage the coastal garden has is the warmer climate in winter so that many less hardy plants are able to thrive that would not survive a few miles inland.

With years of experience we can design to meet your needs and this carefully married to make the most of the prevailing conditions. We design particularly to take advantage of what is on offer and to make nature work for you as much a possible.
