“I have been meaning to mail you to thank you for doing such a marvellous job for us. The quality of the design, materials and execution were second to none and exceeded our expectations completely. People who know the house are just astounded at the transformation and the fact you guys brought 50 tons of stuff through the house without a scratch.”

“The cottage was merely an area to walk through with the dogs. It has been transformed and is now the feature of the property which we enjoy every day and show off to our friends and neighbours!
Mr & Mrs S (Sunderland Bridge, County Durham) - See project

“We are both so grateful to have had the opportunity to get to know and to work with Garden Sanctuaries. You offered valuable advice and a unique design for landscaping our garden which involved returning it to an interesting garden, when previously most of it had been waste and a dumping ground for rubbish and compost. Your suggestions and further work in different seasons means that we now have a garden which we delight in.”
Mr & Mrs M (Durham)

“We found the whole process from concept to completion to be easy and without any problems at all. We were very impressed while you were working on the patio with your reliability, attention to detail, and sheer hard work. You treated the whole job as if it was for your own garden, and your enthusiasm and obvious determination to do an excellent job were evident from the start. The finished patio looks fantastic, better than we could have imagined, and is testimony to your attitude and ability .We look forward to having you back in the spring to work more wonders in our garden!
Thank you so much. “

“My extensive garden make-over was superbly carried out by Garden Sanctuaries. Your attention to detail, knowledgeable and helpful advice, and reliability all contributed to a result with which I am thrilled. You seemed to enjoy the challenge and get much pleasure from creating a beautiful garden full of colour and interest. I would have no hesitation in recommending you as an excellent landscape gardener.”

“Your initial planning and attention to detail resulted in a green oasis for my family in the middle of London. From start to finish, it was a stress free experience and now requires minimal maintenance. The ability to decipher my family's requirements and an encyclopedic knowledge of plants combined with an adventurous eye means you have created a space where we can have family meals all year round.”

“You have a flare for colour and putting the right plants together to get a wow effect."
Miss F (Manchester)

“You spent time understanding my needs and what I wanted to use the garden for and then came up with a different idea for my boring lawn area and made a real feature of it.”
Miss G (London)

“Then came the last day and we were delighted with the final results. You have done a fantastic job giving us exactly what we wanted and more.
We have just experienced our first year of the newly reformed garden and it certainly has been very pleasurable. The plants have flourished and have given us some wonderful colours.
We would certainly recommend you as a fantastic landscape gardener and we only wish we had more garden to give you to transform.”
Mr & Mrs S (Shotley Bridge, County Durham)

"Just a short note to let you know how much we appreciate the work you have put in so far. We have already seen the impact, of the new courtyard layout, far more useable and aesthetically pleasing, the reshaping and replanting of the borders (the next one to do!) and the introduction of new plants.
We very much look forward to our continuing relationship and seeing the evolution of our garden into a lasting testimony of your practicality, vision, knowledge and expertise."
