Gardens that belong.
Rooted in place and designed for living
Garden design, planting design and horticultural advice in Berkshire, Hampshire, Surrey, Wiltshire and Oxfordshire.
I create gardens that feel at home in their surroundings and work beautifully for the people who use them.
From strong spatial planning and thoughtful planting to materials and the details that bring a garden to life, I consider how everything comes together — creating spaces with character that become more rewarding as they mature.
From our first meeting, it was clear that Claire knows what works and what doesn't. She came up with some great ideas that maximised the space we have and we are delighted with the results.
Claire is easy to deal with and works collaboratively to make sure that you will be left with a garden that you will want to spend plenty of time in."" McDonough 2025"
