Lower Beeding – Deck Retreat

The brief:

To create a low maintenance rear garden and at the same time overcoming the difficult, small shape with a seating area and a focal point to add interest.

The main issues with the garden were:

• The garden was too small to turf and in many respects  impractical.
• Different levels of paving
• Badly erected fence with gaps underneath.

Our Solution

We built a small deck seating area and a  pergola to add interest to the garden.

We joined up the paving to create a larger area of patio and takes you to the deck area

Raised beds were built out of sleepers to hide the gaps under the fence with tall planting.

Stone/gravel was laid to cover the remaining area and planted with architectural shrubs slightly hiding the deck retreat in the corner to add garden interest from the house.
