What makes a garden special?

For as long as there have been people there have been gardens.

A plot of land to feed the family, a refuge from a world in turmoil, a sanctuary for the soul, a statement of power and wealth, an outdoor living space, a celebration of local distinctiveness, a place for children to play and grow, a haven for birds and creatures: a garden can be all of these things and more.

A garden is a link with the past and a covenant with the future.

At Cromwell Design, we seek to help you capture the elements of a special garden:

• a sense of time and place
• simplicity
• attention to detail
• respect for the environment
• harmony
• originality
