Geoff Alsford at Newbury show 2008

The Design

At the Newbury Show in partnership with Howard Nowell Garden design and Walnut Hill Nurseries, Geoff Alsford Ltd built the Seclusion Garden.

The aim of this garden is to show that even the smallest of places can be an oasis of tranquillity given the right treatment. In the high octane lifestyles we lead today it is important we give our souls a place to breathe and a well earned rest. The structure and placement of the topiary and trees gives a winter framework that is embellished by the rest of the seasons planting, making it a year round place to enjoy the elemental sensation of the water feature and it's surrounding flora. Just walk out the back door and into your own little piece of heaven.
