Simply Garden Design

The garden in our newly built house had a very basic patio and a simple square of lawn: it was truly a blank canvas. Katie at Simply Garden Design was keen to hear what ideas we had for the space, how we planned to use it and what plants we liked. She then sprinkled some fairy dust on that information and added some of her own wonderfully creative ideas to put together a beautiful design. She had the expert knowledge to give us a little bit of guidance on what would work best and what might be sub-optimal. The guys she worked with to make this a reality were an absolute delight, with an eye for detail that was a match for my own obsessive tendencies. They worked hard and were totally reliable. The finished project has lots of interest and actually makes the garden seem larger! I really can’t praise Katie or her landscaping team highly enough: we are absolutely delighted with our new garden.

Katie was absolutely spot on with delivering a perfect design for our garden She listened carefully to our requirements and produced a stunning finished result. Katie’s design was implemented by a team of landscapers she works along side and together the whole project was completed efficiently and with minimal disruption. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

From start to finish Katie was throughly,professional, came up with some amazing ideas for our small space and worked to our budget. We are so pleased with the result. Aftercare is brilliant too with plant maintenance schedules . We really cannot recommend Katie enough. She has a great team working with her who worked hard and left the site clean and tidy.

We were lucky enough to secure Katie’s services recently for our garden project. From my very first telephone conversation with Katie, I knew she would be the right person for the job! We liked the way she worked; at every stage we had the option to ‘go it alone’ with the ideas she gave us or continue with her expertise (which, of course we did!). Katie listened to our concerns and had great suggestions to overcome them. Burleigh Landscapes who, on Katie’s recommendation, brought the design to life were also excellent. Really nice guys to have around and very courteous and conscientious. We are delighted with our finished garden and have already had so much more use out of all the newly created spaces. Thank you!

I cannot thank Katie and her team enough for such a garden transformation. From initial design everyone has been professional, efficient, hard working and collaborative. It is beautifully laid out, thoughtfully planted and easily maintained. I cannot recommend Simply Garden Design highly enough, I am beyond delighted!

We were absolutely delighted with Katies design and plant selection for our garden. Very professional and so patient working with us as we were quite clueless when it came to plant knowledge and Katies knowledge was second to none. Thanks Katie we are so very happy with our new garden. Julie & Clive Heath

Katie Davies provided a comprehensive design service for us. She created an excellent garden for a small space. We are very pleased with both the hard paving design and the plant selection. Nothing was too much trouble for Katie, and we are delighted with the result. Highly recommended. Bob and Pat Jenkin

We recently had a large landscaping project completed by Katie at Simply Garden Design and can’t speak highly enough of the process from start to finish. Excellent communication, fantastic landscaping team, punctual, polite and professional. We’ll be working with Katie again in the very near future and would highly recommend to others.

Katie was very patient and long suffering with us, to start with we didn't really know what we wanted, other than it had to be low maintenance, colour all year, flatten the lawn if possible, make the most of the sunshine. Well she gave us ideas we never would have thought of ourselves and very patiently sat with us while we changed our minds (sorry, Katie!). However eventually we arrived at a final decision and from then on it was action stations. The garden guys were fabulous, working through ferocious heat and including us in all unseen queries. They were a pleasure to have working here and were very considerate. We are now thrilled to have a completely different and contemporary garden which really works for us - the rounded patio extends the garden and creates interest. We've enjoyed several days sitting in different parts and getting so much pleasure from the different aspects. The flowering is perfect, we look forward to lots of bees and butterflies next summer. I love looking out during the day, and again in the evening, with the lights focusing on various focal points. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Katie and her team.

Katie did a really good job for us of redesigning our back garden. At the start we didn't have much idea of what we actually wanted other than a few basics, "Needs to look nice!", "Not too high maintenance", "Child friendly", "Needs to have a Japanese section". Katie was particularly good at giving us a lot of different ideas and then helping us to understand what we really wanted. From there she came up with a design that we liked and then worked with the landscaping company to make sure that the whole project was well managed and turned out the way we wanted. We are very pleased with the renovated garden - thank you, Katie!

Having had a building project and extension complete in 2021 we had a blank canvas, mess of a garden. Katie has transformed it in to something we’re very proud of, which beautifully complements our home. Katie patiently talked to us, understanding our needs and wants and has nailed the design, so that we have a low maintenance but beautiful and interesting garden that our family can grow and evolve with. The landscaping team Katie works with were first class also. Absolutely delighted and everyone who has visited has commented ‘wow’! Some have even taken photos and said it’s like something from a magazine. Thank you Katie. Neil and Amy Wilson

I have recently had my courtyard transformed by Katie and her team. From the start it was a pleasure to work with Katie, she took on board my ideas added to it with her extensive knowledge and experience and came up with a plan and worked within my budget. Once the plan was done, Katie’s team came in and transformed the courtyard from a concrete nothing to a beautiful oasis which is a complete joy to behold. I cannot recommend Katie and her team highly enough, a pleasure to work with
