The Best Gardeners in Froyle, Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

First time I've used Richard Elphee's services and am most impressed. After checking fundamentals of what I wanted done, he recommended actions including significant work to cut back a Goat Willow and trim hedges to an agreed height. He and his colleague spent most of the day in our garden in the pouring rain, cleared up all the waste and checked I was happy as the job progressed. First class.

Richard and Ben have done an excellent job in our garden which had become rather overgrown and untidy. They are hard working, knowledgeable and intelligent; they listen to our wishes and make helpful suggestions. They have made it look so much better and we are delighted. We recommend Richard Elphee very highly and will continue to turn to them in the future.

Richard and Ben work on my father’s garden regularly and I am always very happy with their work. They have just finished working on his hedging giving it a much needed facelift and it now looks excellent having been cut back and given much needed support. Richard discussed every detail and quoted before any work was completed. I would definitely recommend him and his services to anyone.

I've worked with Aylwin over the past 18 months. We'd not long moved into a house with a garden that was best described as a 'blank canvas'. Aylwin worked with my wife and me to develop an initial detailed layout for the garden, prepared detailed planting plans for the various areas of the garden, purchased the plants and then planted them. He's now helping me on an ad hoc basis to manage the garden, my gardening skills being sadly lacking. I can't speak highly enough of the work that Aylwin has done for us. We now have a wonderful garden that we absolutely love and find easy to maintain.

Review of Beyond the Borders Garden Design, Alton, Hampshire. Excellent design work at a fair price. Aylwin is very approachable and knowledgeable about all aspects of landscaping. Our brief had several constraints including an old concrete rainwater collection system, various different levels, and plants to conserve . Aylwin took on board our requirements and produced a design using clay pavers which managed to draw everything together and complement the garden and house.

I couldn't be happier with the wonderful design and finished garden which completely met the brief and exceeded my expectations. Aylwin was meticulous in preparing the garden and making sure that what i wanted was possible, not an easy task given the rotten ground my original garden presented him with. He also gave me a comprehensive guide to maintaining everything and has been on hand to offer ongoing advice. I now have a beautiful garden that has been much admired. The water feature is stunning and the photos don't do it justice.

Aylwin was very helpful in providing a consultancy service to help us re-design a small part of our garden. His creative perspective was invaluable. He very quickly understood our requirements and came up with a concept plan promptly. I would highly recommend Alwin, whether for small consultancy projects or larger garden designs. When the ongoing landscaping work is complete I'll add photos!

Matt has just finished replacing our old garden fence. He has done a brilliant job and if we need any other jobs would use his services again.

Very pleased with the work done by Matt and his team at Holybourne Garden Services. They dug up a brick paver patio, a couple of flower beds, and dismantled an old greenhouse. All replaced with a nice new extended patio, to include a ramp up to the log cabin where I keep my lawn tractor. Also built a new greenhouse and a smaller flower bed. They were all hard-working, tidy and courteous, and Matt kept me fully informed and made sure I was happy with progress at all stages.

never had this guy come round just saw pics of peoples gardens they look EPIC
