Our Services

Bowercot Garden Design offers a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet the diverse needs of their clientele. From initial consultation and design to meticulous planting and installation, they guide their clients through every stage of the garden creation process.

Project initiation begins with an in-depth consultation where Alan and Bryn attentively listen to their clients' aspirations and preferences.

Whether it's a charming cottage garden, a sprawling country estate, or a contemporary urban oasis, they approach each project with a bespoke approach, crafting a unique garden design that reflects the client's individual style and lifestyle.
