Entertaining Spaces
A well-designed outdoor entertaining space transforms a garden into an extension of the home—whether it’s a chic urban terrace in West London or a sprawling countryside retreat in Somerset.

A well-designed courtyard garden transforms even the most compact outdoor space into a stylish and tranquil retreat. Whether you have a small urban courtyard, a Victorian terrace courtyard, or a modern enclosed garden, the right courtyard garden design enhances privacy, maximizes space, and brings greenery into your home.

FAQs
How much does garden design cost in London?
Our garden consultation service starts at £400 for a half-day session with our RHS-qualified designer. Border renovation projects begin at £1,100, while full garden design packages start from £3,000. For complete design and build projects in London, budgets typically start around £20,000 for smaller courtyard gardens, with larger plots requiring proportionally more. London costs tend to run higher than elsewhere due to access challenges, skip permits, and contractor rates — we're always upfront about this during initial conversations. Approximately 88% of your investment goes toward labour, materials and plants, with around 12% allocated to design.
How long does a full garden transformation take in London?
Timescales vary depending on scope. A garden consultation can happen within a few weeks of enquiry. Design projects typically take 6-12 weeks from briefing to final plans, including 3D visualisations and detailed planting schemes. Build phases depend on scale, access, and contractor availability — a small courtyard might take 2-3 weeks to construct, while a larger full garden transformation could run to 8-12 weeks. Spring and autumn are our busiest seasons, so if you're hoping for completion before summer entertaining, we recommend booking your consultation in January or February.
Can you design a modern contemporary garden?
Absolutely — contemporary design is one of our strengths. Clean lines, architectural planting, quality materials, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. We use techniques like floating benches, cantilevered steps, Corten steel planters, and restrained plant palettes to create calm, sophisticated spaces. Contemporary doesn't mean sterile — our designs balance hard landscaping with soft, biodiverse planting that brings life and movement. Many of our London courtyard projects and entertaining spaces take a contemporary approach that suits modern architecture and lifestyle.
What is the cost of a front garden makeover?
Front garden transformations typically range from £8,000-£25,000 depending on size, materials, and features. A Victorian front garden restoration with period-appropriate tiles, planting, and new pathway might be £10,000-£15,000. Our pricing page includes a project simulator to help you understand costs. Front gardens often deliver the best return on investment — they transform your home's first impression and can increase property value.
Can you design Victorian terrace gardens in London?
Victorian terrace gardens are our speciality — we've transformed dozens across East London, North London, and throughout the capital. These long, narrow plots need careful planning to avoid the 'corridor' effect. Our designs create distinct zones, use clever planting to add width, and balance hard landscaping with greenery. We also specialise in Victorian front garden restoration, bringing period charm back to tired entrances with appropriate materials and planting.
