Landscapers & Garden Design in Shillinglee
We design and build gardens in Shillinglee and the surrounding GU8, RH14 area. Along Shillinglee Road and the wooded lanes between Plaistow, Chiddingfold and Northchapel on the Sussex and Surrey border.
Gardens that suit Shillinglee
Properties along Shillinglee Road tend to be secluded country homes on large wooded plots. We design gardens that open up light and views while keeping the privacy that drew owners here, with terraces, pergolas and garden rooms tucked into the landscape.
Every project starts with a survey and a proper design, so terraces, planting, lighting and any garden room are planned together rather than added piece by piece.
- Full garden design and 3D visuals
- Natural stone terraces, paths and steps
- Planting plans for local soil and aspect
- Garden rooms, studios and luxury pergolas
Ground, access and planning
Most plots here sit on heavy Weald clay, which shapes our drainage and foundation choices from day one.
Parts of the area fall under the South Downs National Park, so garden buildings and hard landscaping are assessed against its design guidance before we quote.
