Our Customers
Secret Garden have been looking after my garden for a couple of years and it has flourished under their care. Their hard work clearing, planting, and nurturing the garden has meant that I can just enjoy it. I like being able to use a local business, and I highly recommend them.

"We are delighted by how well Ali understood our desire to move away from a rectangular space to a more interesting garden. The team were formidable – rain or shine, they slogged away and were at all times polite and friendly. Tamsin implemented a lovely planting plan and we look forward to seeing how it has matured this season. We are very happy to recommend Secret Garden. Their work brings us daily pleasure."

"We are very happy with our garden, especially the fencing, brickwork and planting, which looked beautiful this summer!"
