We asked Sam to design a country/coastal garden that was easy to maintain as we would not be at the house all the time. We wanted to include a boardwalk and some curves. We also needed to lose some of the lawn as we were spending most weekends cutting it in the summer.

We had chosen our own summerhouse, which Sam incorporated into the design but otherwise it really was a blank canvas. Trevor built the garden and Sam planted all the beautiful flowers, trees and grasses. She gave us a book showing all our new plants with a guide to show us how to care for them.

Many thanks to Samantha for designing such a lovely garden. A perfect place to entertain friends and family, or just curl up with a good book. We look forward to spending long hot summer days admiring our new garden in Norfolk.
