Greenmantle Gardens

Welcome to Greenmantle Gardens. Thanks for taking the time to visit. We are based in Devon, and are open to working in other parts of the UK and abroad. We hope that what you see and read here will inspire you to work with us, enabling you to create something exceptional: a well-designed and beautifully maintained garden. Whether you use your garden for entertaining, leisure, play, attracting wildlife, growing produce, reflection, garden development is one of the most rewarding projects you will ever be involved in.

The rôle of the designer is an over-arching one. Francoise brings 25 years of expertise to your project, so that your finished garden matches your aspirations and helps create a signature style that is all your own. We work to fit within your budget, and to develop harmonious flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, whilst also connecting with whatever lies beyond the garden boundary. Sometimes this may involve screening to create more privacy and enclosure. Clever storage solutions and secret surprises are part of our repertoire! Our eye for detail helps enhance your space, delivering maximum impact in an ergonomic way.

...It is our privilege to be able to guide you through every stage of the process, from consultation where we work hard to crystallise your vision, through to detailed plans drawn by hand by Francoise or using CAD where digital files are required. We can recommend a contractor for the build phase, and manage this for you, to ensure the design is implemented according to detailed specifications, yours and ours. We can also take care of ordering plants and installing the soft landscaping areas, and even teach and provide for on-going maintenance, should this be required. Local suppliers of sculpture, benches, paving and more in wood, metal and stone add a personalised touch.

Whether it is just replanting a border, or completely starting from scratch, we look forward to working with you to create an outdoor space that is inspiring and nourishing to be in ... One that enhances your quality of life, bringing beauty, verve and biodiversity to your outdoor space, whilst adding real value to your home.
