We have been delighted with the work that has been carried out by Robert Barker design The project was very ambitious as we have a large garden in a woodland area that had no structure or theme to planting either in design or colour. We were consulted with by Danielle and Robert and gave our preferences of colour theme and we were presented with exactly what were were looking for with many ferns and grasses and an all year round garden. In addition they had such great insight to offer low yew hedging that offered a modern smart look and created individual interesting areas in the main garden.Then created a separate side garden with privacy trees and slatted grey modern fencing creating a relationship with the front garden. Also a calming seating area that had a staggered pathway to link the side garden to a huge porcelin walled patio with soft planting and lighting for the main entertainment area.A side area was also created for alfresco eating surrounded by climbing plants and trees.The Front was also softened up with a completely new design with a planting scheme that followed the theme in the rear garden.They were on site at each point from plant delivery to planting and also in follow up visits and on hand with questions and advice. The garden is a masterpiece and we are very proud of the finished look and it will just get better as it’s in its first season. Danielle designed the irrigation system which was an essential part of the success to date given the dry summer we had.Robert is so knowledgeable and helped steer us to good decisions during the design and the implementation of the project and we can say it has been a huge success and we would highly recommend Robert Barker design and landscaping to anyone both private or corporate as we have the dream garden that will just keep getting better.Thank you Robert and Danielle for all of your dedication during the project and you should be proud of the design and we look forward to seeing you soon. I can see why you have so many awards as you think outside the box and have certainly added major value to my house and created a garden we can enjoy for the rest of our lives. Thank you again More...

Robert recently designed and landscaped our entire rear garden to an incredibly high standard. From the initial consultation to the finished product we were very impressed by his professionalism, good humour and patience with us as clients with no real idea about gardens. He listened to our brief about how we wanted to use and enjoy the garden, took ideas and inspiration from the internal furnishings of our house and he produced excellent plans and plant lists that he explained in detail. He recommended several gardeners to quote to complete the work implementing his design and was in regular attendance to ensure the project was proceeding as per his plans.We are extremely happy with the finished result and are looking forward to seeing it develop over the coming years.We highly recommend using Robert More...

Robert designed the planting in our newly dug-out and landscaped back garden tiers. We are four months in and the plants and flowers are just starting to grow and bloom. We are so pleased with the work so far (it’s the main view from the house so we wanted something special) and are looking forward to watching it all develop and mature over the next year. More...

Robert was extremely flexible and did an excellent job in designing the landscaping and planting designs for our garden. He was patient and professional and produced design drawings which he refined to ensure our requirements were being fully met. Robert was involved at every stage from inception to planting. Since the implementation of the design we have retained Roberts services to provide bi-annual 'health checks'. This is an excellent way to ensure the garden remains in top shape. We are totally satisfied and would not hesitate to recommend Robert Barker Garden & Landscape Designs More...

The brief for our garden was to keep the large lawn area for my children to play on and make everything else beautiful. Robert made a slight change to the shape of the bedding area, but this made a big difference to the look and feel of the garden. He used some existing plants and planted lots of new ones to create beautiful colour scheme and texture that changes with the seasons. Robert also designed some planters for the decking area. In the planters he created an exotic herb garden for me. Two years on the garden still looks wonderful.
Robert was very easy to work with and also sympathetic to our needs. He is very passionate about his work which is beautiful.
