Newby Courtyard Garden

Newby Courtyard Garden

​Old bank barn with an extensive car park for a garden

• Semi retired professional couple keen to create a courtyard garden from an old farmyard
• Galvanised raised beds to give a rural feel to the space and provide enough soil depth for productive and colourful planting
• New seating areas around the space for different times of the day around a central circular raised bed from local stone
• Seasonal planting combinations and a naturalistic feel
• Constructed by Wildroof Landscapes

What my clients said:

“Working with Liz was a great experience from start to finish. Her approach to developing the brief before anything else was ideal for us as it made us think about what we wanted to do in the garden and the elements that we wanted to include before there was any sort of design down on paper. Then her 3-dimensional thinking gave us great ideas for creating a courtyard garden within the space and adding trees. We loved the suggested connection back to the original farmyard with the galvanised planters too. Add to that planting that’s changed month by month from early spring right through to the winter and you can see why we’re so pleased with the new garden. Love it.”
