About Us

As founder of The Best Dressed Garden, my philosophy has remained the same since training as a garden designer 12 years ago; to create gardens which are an extension of the family home and to source high quality, original and beautiful lifestyle garden furniture, accessories and lighting which will enhance and extend the outdoor living experience.

We at The Best Dressed Garden feel that the garden is such a wasted area of the home and rarely used to its full potential, so the aim of our website and blog is to bring together inspirational garden furniture and accessory ideas to help you enjoy your garden, regardless of available space, weather conditions or time of year.

This is not a horticultural website, you won’t find us talking about taking cuttings, pruning or double digging, because we feel that gardens are there to be enjoyed and relaxed in and not to be a chore; gardens are space, light, fun, fresh air, friends, family.

We love the words of Charles Barr and agree with his sentiment totally...

"The best way to get real enjoyment out of the garden is to put on a wide straw hat, hold a little trowel in one hand and a cool drink in the other, and tell the man where to dig"
