Rutland-based Gillian Goodson Designs offers a friendly, professional garden, landscape and planting design service centred entirely around you and your garden, regardless of how big or small.  

​

Combining creativity with a highly personal approach, we create thoughtful designs carefully shaped to suit you, your property and the unique character of your garden., starting every design with a conversation, as we appreciate no two clients - and no two gardens - are ever the same.​

​

​Our award-winning studio based in Rutland designs gardens mainly in Rutland, Stamford, Market Harborough, covering East Anglia, the East Midlands and London, however, we are happy to travel wherever needed and have a number of happy clients across the UK.  

Locations

​

"We found Gillian to be very knowledgeable, helpful, and charming, and would not hesitate to recommend her."

" The planting is a delight "

"Evergreens for all-year-round structure. Other shrubs for autumn colour, winter scent and spring flowering. Pollinator friendly perennials. Lovely grasses. Gillian incorporated our own preferences for plants; and added many more with which we were unfamiliar. Gillian sourced the plants. Good quality; reasonable prices. We did not have a detailed planting plan on paper. Rather, Gillian had an image in her mind, then set out on site, seeing what worked best."
