A garden consultation is a relaxed yet focused session designed to give you clarity, direction, and confidence. Whether you're at the very beginning of your garden journey or feeling stuck with an existing space, a garden consultation offers expert insight without the commitment of a full redesign.

​

The consultation provides you with a chance to ask questions, explore possibilities, and gain a deeper understanding of what will work best for your garden.

​

You’ll come away with a clear sense of direction and a collection of ideas you can implement at your own pace

HOW IT WORKS

1 | Pre-meeting Questionnaire: 

Nicola will send you a short questionnaire to complete before your meeting. It will ask you for some more details about your garden and what you would like to achieve from the consultation. 

​

2 | In-person Consultation:

During the 1.5 hour consultation, Nicola will walk through your garden and discuss how you currently use the space and how you’d like to use it. She will listen carefully to your ideas, preferences, and any challenges you’ve been facing, then offer thoughtful, practical suggestions that feel achievable and in keeping with your home.

​

3 | Follow-up Guide: 

Following the consultation, Nicola will produce a summary document that captures key recommendations and next steps. This will help you to unlock the full potential of your garden.​

"Nicola has the rare ability to translate the disjointed desires of inexperienced gardeners into beautiful designs and ultimately amazing gardens. Even when, as complete novices, we elected to carry out the hard-landscaping work ourselves, Nicola’s advice and guidance saw us through, with no question ever too daft or trivial. She even spent a day with us laying out and planting, to bring her designs to life.
The transformation of our gardens has been immediate and impressive, and I cannot wait to see how they evolve over the coming years."
