This was a project within an established garden to provide a secluded retreat away from the main house that would maximise the movement of the sun in the garden.
An area at the bottom of the garden became the focal point for the woodland retreat.
The retreat consisted of a green Indian sandstone circular patio incorporating a brick circular seating area.
The main patio area was enhanced by lighting around the circle and behind the circular seating.
Mature bamboo was planted to create seculsion and aromatic shrubs and perennials where used to create a sense of calm and to encourage wildlife.
Due to the position of the main patio feature and to enchance the woodland theme, planting areas where covered in a bark mulch to prevent weed growth and to reduce the need for watering.
