About Us

When it comes to delivering high-quality bespoke landscaping and garden design services, few companies can compete with the level of expertise offered here at Butler Landscapes.

Founded more than 35 years ago by Paul Butler – a skilled garden designer and construction specialist with a renowned reputation – we started life as a small, family business with just a handful of clients. In the decades since, we’ve expanded into a multi-award-winning company, known for our creativity and exceptional workmanship. Despite this growth, we remain proudly family-run and still work with some of those original clients today, which speaks volumes about our personalised service and outstanding attention to detail.

We believe every outdoor space has potential, no matter its size or setting. From small private gardens to acres of countryside estate, we work closely with every client to produce a bespoke design that brings your ideas to life. Our team of knowledgeable landscapers and garden designers has a real passion for what they do, and we’re constantly looking for ways to develop our knowledge and improve our way of working to exceed all customer expectations.

We pride ourselves on our transparent, collaborative process and will work closely with you throughout the entirety of your project to ensure every last detail is as you imagined. We take an end-to-end approach, meaning that our experts will be by your side from concept to completion to guarantee your satisfaction.

Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of working with a number of high-profile clients, such as John Lewis, the RSPCA, Cheshire Living magazine and Horatio’s Garden Midlands at RJAH Hospital, which was designed by Bunny Guinness. Paul was also entrusted to contribute to ITV’s garden show ‘With a Little Help From My Friends’, where he helped design the Alder Hey Children’s Garden. We’ve also showcased our work at several RHS shows and other notable events. We’ve garnered a number of awards too, including:

  • RHS Gold medals
  • RHS Silver medals
  • ‘Best in Show’ titles
  • Garden Designer of the Year award from Concept Living magazine
  • Silver Gilt Medals
  • BALI Awards
  • Best of Houzz Awards

If you’d like to know more about what we do, please get in touch with our friendly team today. We’re always happy to answer any questions and discuss your ideas in more depth.

So how do we work?

1

Consultation and survey

We’ll pay you a visit to discuss your requirements in person and get to know your space. By carrying out a site survey, we can take into account the garden’s size, gradient, soil conditions and more to ensure this is reflected in the design.

2

Concept designs and quote

We’ll produce a concept design, drawn to scale, detailing all the main features to give you an idea of what your new garden will look like. We’ll then provide a comprehensive quote to suit your budget.

3

Detailed design

Our experienced garden design team will create detailed plans, drawings, specifications and a proposed planting scheme. We’ll ensure every last detail has been carefully thought out.

4

Construction

We will then build our design – or that of other architects or designers – to transform your outdoor space. Our skilled landscaping team work carefully and precisely to bring the design to life.

5

Maintenance

Once all the work is complete, we can provide an ongoing maintenance service to keep your garden looking its best all year round.

Hillside Terrace

Hillside Terrace

We were asked to create a more social space and maximise light in this North-facing garden. We achieved this by extending the lower terrace area into the existing lawn, constructing a cascading water feature and installing a fire pit area with strategic lighting.

Terraced Contemporary Garden

The client wanted a family-friendly garden with plenty of space for socialising. We installed a fire pit, water feature wall and an outdoor kitchen area, constructed an upper and lower terrace and shaped a large open lawn, complete with planting.

Farmhouse Gardens

Our team was challenged to redesign this large domestic garden. We created a circular sunken garden, a parterre, a wildlife pond, a kitchen garden and a wildflower meadow, all connected by a series of pathways. The transformation was so impressive that it earned us a BALI Award.

The Well Garden, Wollerton Old Hall

In early 2024, Butler Landscapes were commissioned to construct the newly re-designed Well Garden at Wollerton Old Hall Garden, one of Britain’s most admired private gardens. The re-design was led by Lesley Jenkins in collaboration with Phil Smith (Pip Smith Designs). Their vision retained the garden’s iconic tall yew pyramids, linking visually to the Yew Walk, while introducing a fresh planting palette in shades of green, white, and blue. The re-designed Well Garden was officially opened on 19 April 2024, just before Easter, and was hailed by Financial Times garden writer Robin Lane Fox as a “masterpiece.”
