Greenbook Landscape Design Has Moved to Exeter!

A big change has happened in the Greenbook world – we’ve moved! Both the business and our
lives have made the exciting journey down to Exeter, Devon, a place that’s close to our hearts. It’s
also where Chris first picked up his gardening tools and discovered his passion for all things
gardens.

With its rolling moors, stunning beaches, and arguably the best countryside views in the UK, Devon
feels like the perfect location for Greenbook to thrive. This county has always held a special place
in our hearts, and we’re thrilled to bring our garden design expertise back to the homeland. We
can’t wait to dive into some truly amazing projects here! So, if you’ve got a garden in need of
creative inspiration, please get in touch – we’d love to hear from you.

Why Move To Exeter Now?

Moving to Devon has always been on the cards for us, but we finally took the leap in 2024. It’s a
decision that feels right both personally and professionally. Exeter and the surrounding areas
provide endless inspiration for creating beautiful, nature-connected spaces – and we’re ready to
bring your garden dreams to life in this incredible region.

What Does This Mean for Our Garden Design Work?

While our home base has shifted, our commitment to garden design excellence remains the same.
We’re still here to help transform your outdoor spaces, wherever you are. However, there’s one
small change: we may not always be able to build the spaces we design for you if you’re located
outside the South West.

Not to worry, though – we have some trusted professionals further up the country who can turn our
designs into reality. So, no matter where you are, don’t hesitate to reach out!

The majority of our work moving forward will be South West-based, with a particular focus on
Devon. Whether it’s an urban retreat in Exeter or a sprawling countryside estate, we’re excited to
create spaces that perfectly suit their settings.

Exciting New Garden Design Consultation Service

To make our expertise more accessible, we’re also offering a dedicated Garden Design
Consultation Service. This service allows us to work closely with you to develop ideas, create
plans, and guide your garden transformation. Whether you need full-scale designs or just advice to
take your outdoor space to the next level, we’re here to help.

Let’s Grow Together

This move marks the start of an exciting new chapter for Greenbook Landscape Design, and we’re
so grateful to everyone who has supported us on our journey so far. Whether you’re based in Devon
or further afield, we’d love to collaborate with you on your next garden project. If you are in need
of a garden designer, let’s create something incredible together!

Let’s get planting!

Maintaining this orchard meadow for wildlife! 

It is always great to have meadow grass / wildflower patches throughout your orchard. Cutting them at different times not only benefits wildlife, but makes your maintenance schedule easier too! 

These rules apply to any patches of wildflower or long grass throughout your garden to create a more diverse range of habitats in your plot 🪴

From building site to floral delight!🪴

This garden deserves some love. It is packed full of neat design details and packs plenty of planting and even a lawn into a small family garden. 

The Corten water feature built into the oak retaining wall and steps is a clever feature and it’s also viewed from the picture windows on the house. 

The wrap around steps make the upper level of the garden open and inviting, with a whole band of wildflower hugging the top of the garden.

A family garden wouldn’t be complete without some raised veg beds, hand built by yours truly in Oak boards. 

Great garden for great clients! 🙌

Really excited to share this design we’ve recently completed! 

This is a design that works around some major existing features, such as the pool, pond and mature trees. Large planting areas surround the curved deck and will be filled with edible perennials. 

Patchy lawn under the mature trees will be replaced with woodland understory planting. 

Other features include an informal fire pit area nestled amongst coppiced hazels with bespoke curved seating. 

The garden will create focal points that are viewed from the house and will use subtle lighting throughout. 

Just working on the technical details and planting scheme at the moment. Can’t wait to share more as it develops 🪴

If anyone needs their garden designed, do get in touch! We’re taking bookings for 2025/2026.

Stunning winter containers 🪴

Everyone thinks there’s not much gardening to be done now and that gardens can’t look good in January, but no matter what size garden you have, you can make one of these! 

Hope you enjoy the video. Comment and let me know what you’d like to see next 🙌
