Town and Country Gardens

Making the most of your garden, this full design service takes you from inspiration and ideas, to masterplanning, right through to completed construction and planting.

Roof Terraces, Courtyards and Patios

We live in London, so we know that any outdoor space comes at a premium. We can help you transform your outdoor space into a garden to enjoy.

Planting Designs

If your garden needs a new lease of life we can design planting plans that will bring a new look and feel.

One-off Garden Consultation

If you simply want a fresh perspective on ‘what next?’ for your garden, courtyard or terrace, we will help you to kick start your own project.

Featured Projects

Featured below are three of our latest projects – head to Our Work to see more on these and other highlighted gardens by Hicks & Hart.

Lush City Garden

Tucked into a compact Notting Hill courtyard, Hicks & Hart studio garden is a private green escape – a lush, textural space for working, entertaining and unwinding in the heart of the city.

Riverside Garden

This half-acre garden in North Norfolk features wildlife-friendly planting, inspired by the expansive views across the river and surrounding farmland – a tranquil space to relax and unwind.

Hotel Formal Gardens

Set in 110 acres of parkland, these redesigned gardens honour the elegance of a grand country house hotel, blending classical structure with playful planting as a backdrop for guest enjoyment and celebration.

News & Notes

This month at Hicks & Hart we are having some of our gardens professionally photographed. Here’s a look behind the scenes. See the end results under Our Work above or head to @hicksandhart on Instagram for more news and notes from Hicks & Hart Garden Design.

Riverside Garden, North Norfolk

Capturing the wide angle shot. The owners of this Grade II listed property have been a joy to work with. We love this house and garden so much we based our web site illustrations around it.

Norfolk Cottage Garden

It’s important to show the fun that can be had in a garden. Here we are capturing cocktail hour. For this shoot we set other vignettes to show how the garden can be enjoyed throughout the day.

Norfolk Cottage Garden

The light is best for a photo shoot just after sunrise and just before sunset. Here we are waiting for the sun to actually set so we can capture the garden lighting effects on the pleaches and ornamental trees.
