Cottage Garden Design
Informal and characterful outdoor spaces designed to complement traditional rural cottages using layered planting, natural materials and practical paths.
Embracing Informal Charm
The traditional cottage garden is a staple of the countryside—a beautiful, seemingly chaotic mix of colors and textures that actually requires careful planning to succeed. We design these spaces to bloom progressively, offering year-round structure amidst the abundant summer growth.
Key Considerations
- Dense, layered planting to suppress weeds and create volume.
- Winding, informal pathways using brick, stone, or gravel.
- Integration of heritage plant varieties suited to the local climate.
