garden design and landscaping in Dauntsey

Gardens across Dauntsey

Dauntsey is a scattered, rural clay-vale parish in the Dauntsey Vale, a quiet patch of North Wiltshire countryside with generous gardens and grounds. We design and build gardens here across the range: full garden design and build, natural and wildlife ponds, planting and outdoor living.

The ground around Dauntsey

Dauntsey sits on the Oxford clay of the vale, which holds water and moves as it wets and dries. That clay, which makes hard landscaping demanding, also lends itself to natural and wildlife ponds, where water held in the ground is an asset. We dig to firm ground, build sub-bases and drainage to suit the clay, and choose planting that thrives in it.

Planning in Dauntsey

Dauntsey is not designated land, so much garden work sits within permitted development, with the usual exceptions for listed buildings and rural setting. We tell you what applies before we start and point you to Wiltshire Council where a check is needed.
