Reviews
After completing the renovation of the house, we knew that we wanted a garden space that gives us a sense of calm and peace, a sanctuary that connects well with the internal space and feels as an extension to the house. With the garden being overlooked, we also wanted the aspect from the house to feel more 'cocooned', connected but protected from overlooking. Tracy listened closely to our requests and came up with a garden design that echoed the style of the building and connected the garden and internal spaces perfectly. Tracy resolved the privacy issues through careful selection and positioning of new trees and shrubs. The planted beds define the seating areas, create interest and lead the eye through the garden. Tracy’s design showed us the value that a creative garden designer can provide. We get tremendous pleasure from the garden as does everyone who visit. Tracy's skilful, professional and creative approach has made it a pleasure to work with her. She is not only great at what she does, very helpful and supportive but also a nice person who is genuinely interested in creating beautiful spaces for her clients.
As experienced gardeners, we wanted to have the fun of designing our new garden for ourselves. But the site was complex, with multiple levels on three sides of the house, and we knew we couldn’t manage it alone. Tracy was the perfect partner. She helped us split the garden into separate projects (to be tackled over three years) and showed us where to start for quick wins and maximum impact. She listened to our ideas, gave us tips on how draw up our plans and then advised us as we developed our ideas. The main concepts were ours, but Tracy helped us make key changes, altering angles and levels and showing us how things could be improved. As the garden was built, Tracy helped us articulate our needs for the landscapers and came to our rescue when we realised we’d not planned our levels properly. Most important of all, she gave us the confidence to see our designs through and helped us hold our nerve when we doubted ourselves. Our first projects are now complete, and we are starting to plan the next phase. We will definitely be working with Tracy again. She is incredibly generous with her knowledge and has helped us deliver a garden we could never have imagined possible
Beautiful garden Great plant knowledge and the planting of displays and schemes. Top garden and landscape designer I would 100% recommend Tracy.
Relationship: Client Project Date: May 2024 I looked online for a garden designer that I hoped could transform my quite small garden into a lovely tranquil space for me and my family to enjoy,after looking at several designers I came across Tracy and was instantly drawn to her work as it best suited the garden I was hoping for. I love the old cottage garden look so wanted plenty of herbaceous beds full of beautiful plants and love bringing as much wildlife into the garden as possible and what better than a nice natural looking pond, but with the limited space and need for a decent sized area for sitting and socialising I wondered how anyone could fulfil my needs. Tracy came to talk about what I required and to look at my garden and after gently persuading me to discard of my lawn and to put a more modern twist to the cottage garden that would be more suited to my house she left to do her thing,and left me slightly worried about what she would create. however when seeing the design she had created I was blown away with how she had beautifully fulfilled the brief and all my fears instantly disappeared and I could hardly wait for the work to begin. Tracy was always there when needed for advice and help during the construction process and her close relationship with the guys doing the work was priceless as she would talk to them about any concerns I had and keep a check on how things were going, The end result was stunning and after following Tracy’s planting scheme the garden was complete and when all the plants started to grow and fill the beds it just got better and better with her beautiful colour combinations and the different textures it was the finishing touch to a truly lovely garden. I would recommend Tracy to anyone who is wanting the garden of their dreams her skills and professionalism are second to none. Like 1 hour ago
We have had the privilege of building gardens for Tracy around Yorkshire for around 10 years and bringing her ideas to life. I would say from our point of view as landscape professionals that Tracy is brilliant at what she does, her designs and planting schemes really will create something special in your garden.
