A Mediterranean Garden in the North York Moors

Brief - Inspired by a trip to Mallorca, the new garden areas around the house had to be generous, welcoming and inviting to complement the house and setting. A generous turning circle paired with wide steps to the house interwoven with smaller garden areas make the unit of house and garden. Stone walls together with the choice of hard materials and plants create that mediterranean feeling so desired by the client.

‘The garden is wonderful. It feels like being on holiday, and you can truly never have enough seating areas.’
