Adam and the team at ALS Landscaping have overcome some massive challenges to create a breathtakingly beautiful paved garden for their clients in Lincolnshire.

Consisting of clearly defined zones, the design and its execution are nothing less than remarkable.

Brief
A Cohesive Layout For An Appealling Space

The clients had recently added an orangery and a garage to their well proportioned home and wanted to bring the garden to the same high standard as the interior and the outbuildings.

ALS Landscaping were invited to design and build a driveway and garden to suit the age and style of the property. The space needed to be relaxing, aesthetically pleasing, and have plenty of room for relaxation and entertaining.

Challenge
Water Water Everywhere

The challenges with this project were mainly associated with water management. This garden lies at the bottom of three large hills and has a natural stream running nearby. Being on a clay based soil, it is prone to waterlogging and so excellent drainage was (and is) integral to the long term success of this garden. Over the course of the project, the team were also challenged by very difficult weather conditions.

Solution
Perfectly Proportioned With Precision Workmanship

Over 360 tonnes of earth were removed to create the drainage system and provide a level surface for this perfectly proportioned garden.

An elegant driveway opens up on to a paved turning circle with access to the garage and a view of the garden entrance.

Sturdy timber structures frame the view and invite closer inspection of the generously sized seating and dining areas beyond. Clever use of Egyptian Limestone Slimsetts creates an unusual but highly attractive hard surface. Whilst paddlestone walls topped with bespoke Morley Grey coping stones bring structure and elegance to the space.

On a project of this scale, there is no room for mistakes and every single piece of it has been installed with precision and accuracy. The clients are delighted and the Arbour Landscape Solutions team is in awe. Great work!
