At Earlswood, we understand that creating a truly remarkable garden is about more than just planting, it’s about crafting a harmonious outdoor environment where every element is carefully considered.
That’s why we offer our exclusive Garden Curator service, your personal guide to selecting the finest stone, timber, paving, sheds, and plants to bring your vision to life within our Landscape Village. Our expert curators combine years of horticultural and landscape design experience with an eye for style and detail, helping you make informed, confident choices that elevate your outdoor space. Whether you’re designing a sophisticated garden terrace, planning a full-scale landscape transformation, or seeking that perfect feature to complete your garden, our curators are here to ensure every element works in perfect harmony.
You can drop in for an informal consultation, or book a free guided appointment of up to one hour, during which your curator will walk you through our premium selections, offering tailored advice and inspiration to suit your space, style, and ambitions.
Transform your garden into a space that is both elegant and effortless – with the guidance of Earlswood’s Garden Curators, every detail is considered, every choice is refined, and every garden becomes truly exceptional.
What is the Landscape Village?
Our Landscape Village at Earlswood is designed for real-life selections:
• Stone (including porcelain, sandstone and limestone) and all the elements that bring that to life, gravel edging, cobbles and setts.
• Timber elements and complementary materials, fencing, pergolas, garden buildings for sheds to garden offices or gyms.
• Plants to soften, frame and elevate the finished look and all you need to create the garden design you are looking for
And right now, we’re especially excited about our new range of European Sandstones in warm, earthy shades, moving away from cooler greys and bringing more warmth into outdoor spaces (a real challenge to monotony).
