About
Transforming gardens into beautiful, nature inspired spaces rooted in their surroundings.
Caroline launched her Landscape & Garden Design studio in 2021. Galvanised by the pandemic, she decided to change career and follow her heart, retraining at The English Gardening School at Chelsea Physic Garden to obtain her Garden Design Diploma, graduating with Distinction.
Her work is recognisable by its balanced use of space and flow, its attention to details and luscious planting to create a sense of place where nature can thrive.
Since setting up her studio, Caroline has worked on garden transformations, restorations of historic gardens, protected landscapes, blank canvases and numerous garden consultation projects.
Originally training as a chartered accountant, Caroline previously worked as a consultant and in house for large multinational companies designing organisations, leading teams and delivering transformation across large complex global projects. Designing and overseeing garden and landscape transformations from dream to reality require many similar skills.
Caroline’s gardening roots go back to childhood: she was raised in a family of garden lovers and studied historic English Gardens when she read History at Exeter University. She has subsequently gained significant experience developing and extending her own gardens, which continue to be work in progress and are occasionally open to the public. She can also be found planting at RHS Chelsea Flower Show.
A believer in the power of gardens to promote recovery and wellbeing, the studio supports Horatio’s Garden and the Hampshire Medical Fund.
“Thank you SO much for all your hard work in making and designing a beautiful garden. We are very, very happy with the result. It will be a garden to admire and enjoy for many years to come.”
— Mrs F, Hampshire
