Landscape gardeners
 

Does anyone know of any good firms in the N. Cheshire area? Recommendations? Ideally I'd like to have a go at it myself but the garden is big and I'll need earth movers and plus I'm never here!

When me 'n Fliss brought the place in Wilmslow (well Aldington reely but not everyone nows that!) we used thes peple:

Did good job at making grass roof garag for Fliss's dads car colection too.

My auntie used www.robinwilliams.co.uk who she said wer v good.

Hop that helps.

I have very good contact in said line of work who is also a former hairstylist to the stars. His range of topiary offerings are a wonder to behold. I can pass you his contact details but must advise you that if you have peacocks wandering the estate he will be somewhat reluctant to take on your contract due to a rather unfortunate incident several years ago,(which he did deny in court but to no avail,although the weight of evidence which included a small length of hose pipe and a bottle of baby oil were pretty damning ) :wink:

Thanks, I've given Robin Williams a call - they seem alright, if a little pricey. They're charging £500 for a quote though which I wasn't too happy at, but I suppose there is a fair distance to travel and a reasonable amount of planning.

Some of their existing designs were very similar to what I had in mind so hopefully it'll work out.

:shock: F*$k that :!: :roll:

And so MP...Will you be retaining the Crocquet lawn as an integral feature of the new avant garde design? :)

No. I will be having no croquet lawns, nor Peacocks, nor waterfalls that generate holographic yellow brick roads which lead to Tyrolean enlightenment.

More than likely I'll be settling for a reasonable tiered garden, a water feature, and some nice plants which will more than adequately fit in with my stately semi.

Kewll! Robin Williams v gud. Glad to hve helped.

If u hve a teired gdn, u might b able to get an undergrund gagrge in - am I right that u have a Bentley dont u?

Isn't having multiple accounts against T&C's El Boc?

Martin...Your plan does indeed sound very nice. I hate gardening but can appreciate a well presented one. :wink:
