Finding a skilled landscape gardener who truly understands the unique topography and strict conservation rules of the Cotswolds is essential for any major outdoor project. At The Landscape Consultancy, we operate as a dedicated landscape garden designer and construction team, helping homeowners across this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty transform their rural estates and country gardens. We combine deeply respectful design planning with exceptional physical groundwork to create spaces that feel completely natural to the surrounding countryside.

Our experienced construction and design team covers the entirety of the Cotswolds, ensuring every project respects the local vernacular and architectural heritage. We also have dedicated teams managing complete garden transformations in key towns bordering and within the wider region.

Specialist Rural Construction Services

Working on large country plots requires specialist machinery, deep horticultural knowledge, and exceptional masonry skills. Our APL and SGD accredited tradesmen manage all aspects of the physical build directly.

Dry Stone Walling: We employ traditional techniques to build and repair authentic boundary walls using local materials.
Estate Groundworks: We execute large scale earth moving and levelling to prepare rural plots for expansive new layouts.
Sympathetic Hardscaping: We lay premium natural stone patios that weather beautifully and complement classic country homes.
Native Planting Schemes: We install large specimen trees, mature hedging, and sweeping borders that thrive in local soil.
Water Elements: We construct natural ponds and classic stone water features to encourage local wildlife.

Our Complete Build Process

We pride ourselves on offering a completely unified service from the first site visit to the final planting day. After our design team finalises your layout and secures any necessary conservation approvals, our dedicated builders take over the site. We coordinate all heavy machinery, manage the delivery of large stone batches, and ensure the site remains highly organised. This seamless transition guarantees your new outdoor space is built exactly as intended without the need to hire multiple separate contractors.

Frequently Asked Questions About Landscaping in the Cotswolds

Can a landscape gardener help with AONB planning restrictions?

Yes, working within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty often involves strict council regulations regarding mature trees and boundary walls. We manage the design process carefully to ensure all proposed changes comply fully with local conservation rules before any construction begins.

Do you build traditional dry stone walls from scratch?

Our skilled team is highly experienced in the traditional craft of dry stone walling. We can build entirely new boundaries or carefully restore existing damaged walls to ensure your property maintains its authentic rural character.

Why should I use a landscape garden designer rather than just a builder?

A combined designer and builder ensures that the beautiful concepts on paper are actually viable to construct on your specific terrain. It provides a single point of contact for the entire project and ensures the final build matches the creative vision perfectly.

How do you manage the rolling hills common in Cotswold gardens?

We conquer severe gradients by excavating the earth and building incredibly strong retaining walls. This technique creates beautiful flat terraces that allow you to actually use and enjoy the steep areas of your country estate safely.

Can you source reclaimed stone for my new patio?

We have excellent relationships with specialist suppliers and quarries across the region. We can often source high quality reclaimed stone and original materials to ensure your new landscaping blends flawlessly with your historic property.

Do you provide landscaping for completely new rural builds?

We frequently work alongside architects and developers on newly built country homes. We take the compacted site left after the house construction and install rich topsoil, mature planting, and extensive paving to anchor the new property beautifully into the landscape.
