Even better, is an oak sleeper veg bed just steps away to grow your own vegetables. Imagine wanting to grab a few leaves of lettuce, tomatoes and spring onions for that salad. Bliss, especially when you’ve grown your own. Plus, with the kids patch moments away, it allows them to learn and nurture their own veg. Bespoke oak beam supports are built to allow for all those tomatoes, beans, peas or anything else that needs to climb.

The right hand side is all about sitting within and relaxing. A space to get away from it all. For the children – their little getaway zone. With a patch of turf where they can place a few log seats, or a blanket to play and read. Or, if they truly want to get away, a teepee. Nature is really important in this space, with a birdhouse nearby and a still water feature for birds and insects to be attracted to. Finally, a haven for the adults. Beautiful planting borders edge the quiet adult zone, allowing you to sit within on your bench or egg chair. Grabbing that book, glass of wine or G&T, whilst admiring and looking back at the whole garden.

Planting wise – this garden is about a warm colour theme, purples, pinks, apricots and green. Bringing in scent is also important, but also a mixture of flowers, evergreens and herbs. Mixing herbs such as thyme, oregano and sage into the borders with your lavenders, salvias and hydrangeas. Finally, trees – a Birch tree for that dappled shade and near the veg bed, a fruit tree to bring in spring colour but also that element of grow your own. The garden is edged with double slatted contemporary fencing to provide privacy.
