Landscape Gardener Nantwich
Nantwich is not a town where any garden design will do. A place with this much surviving Tudor and Georgian architecture, a proper market square and a large conservation area deserves gardens built from materials that belong — natural stone rather than the cheapest concrete flag, brick detailing that echoes the house, planting with some age and softness to it. That sensibility is the starting point for how Cheshire Landscape Gardener approaches work in Nantwich.
Materials That Suit Older Properties
For period homes in and around Nantwich we lean towards Indian sandstone in weathered tones, reclaimed-style brick edging, natural gravel and timber that will silver down gracefully — surfaces that look better at ten years old than at ten days. For newer homes on the town’s edge, large-format porcelain and crisp modern lines make more sense. The judgement is knowing which garden wants which, and after 30+ years in this trade, Jason Costello has built both many times over.
Wet Ground Is the Local Enemy
The countryside around Nantwich is dairy country for a reason: the River Weaver’s flood plain and the surrounding clay hold water superbly — wonderful for grass, miserable for gardens. If your lawn squelches from autumn to spring or your paving sits in puddles, the fix is below ground: French drains, soakaways, correct falls and a sub-base deep enough for the conditions. We design drainage into every Nantwich quote from the start rather than treating it as an unwelcome extra, and every part of the build is covered by our full workmanship guarantee.

A Note on Where We’re Based
We work from Mere, near Knutsford, about 40 minutes north of Nantwich. Our documented, photographed projects are concentrated up there — several with full before-and-after videos on our blog — and we’d rather point you at that real portfolio than invent a local one. Site visits in Nantwich are free and carry no obligation, and you’ll normally have a detailed, itemised written quote within 48 hours.
