I contacted Ian following a Google search. Our house does not have a garden. It had an unsightly area in front of the entrance. Whilst not a large area it required someone creative and willing to undertake the design. The brief was to make the best of the limited opportunity and offer a design both practical and attractive. Ian certainly achieved this. Working with his suggested contractor, the work was carried out conscientiously and to a good standard. The inevitable issues discovered during the work were resolved amicably and efficiently. My wife and I are delighted with the final outcome.

I was a self confessed sceptic when it came to “spending money on garden designing”, how wrong I was! We had an ugly disused swimming pool which we didn’t want to resurrect and as a consequence asked Ian over to discuss potential remedies to our problem. From the outset he listened and gave us his honest opinions, which was refreshing, and there was no fluff. He subsequently came back with a plan which was radical and attractive to us. We now have a revamped garden which we are absolutely delighted with. Ian has been attentive, hands on, diligent, great fun and a pleasure to work with throughout the project. We now have a very innovative and tranquil space which makes us smile. Incidentally we don’t often leave feed back but this work deserves it.

Ian of Tythorne Design is a very creative and talented designer with attention to detail; we appreciated the positive dialogue on options and the information we needed. His knowledge and expertise on plants is extensive. He produced excellent detailed drawings and the information file on the plants was very impressively detailed , covering everything from pictures to care. He also introduced us to a 5 star+ hard landscaper who did a fantastic job. Ian's prices are very fair , especially when judged against what you get. Highly recommend

A thoroughly happy and rewarding experience in every respect from design discussions through to planting. Ian offers a thoughtful and expert understanding of plants, trees, interpretation of space and textural as well as colour and seasonal palettes . Quality plants are delivered and the results speak for themselves. This is gardening for the present and the future at its best. Highly recommend.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Ian, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. He designed a comprehensive garden plan, planting plan, and lighting plan for us, transforming our outdoor space into a stunning, useable area. From the initial consultation, Ian impressed us with his vision and attention to detail. He took the time to understand our preferences and lifestyle, ensuring that every element of the design was tailored to our needs. The choice of materials and planting plan is particularly impressive, featuring a beautiful selection of plants that provide year-round interest and colour. Throughout the process, Ian was professional, communicative, and dedicated to making sure we were satisfied. We highly recommend him to anyone looking to create a beautiful and functional garden space. Thank you Ian for turning our vision into reality!
