Consultation – Kim – Crediton 2023

I have just spent an entirely worthwhile couple of hours with Claire who is just so knowledgeable, brimming with ideas and clearly passionate about how to transform, enjoy and make the most of outside space. She shows herself to have endless patience with the ‘not so well-informed’ and more than happy to share knowledge of other useful contacts. Thankyou Claire!!

Mary – Exeter 2023

Our small allotment plot was in a state of total neglect when I contacted Claire at the start of this year and asked for help. She visited and assessed the situation for us ,and then worked incredibly hard to transform a near wilderness to a usable space. Her commitment, professionalism, knowledge, are all exemplary.

Thank you, Claire for all your help and advice.

Lizzie – Exeter 2023

I am extremely happy with the service provided by Lady H and have used her for a number of years now. She provides a reliable, cheerful service and her work rate is excellent – she transforms my garden every time she visits! I highly recommend her.

Liz – Exeter 2023

Claire has been a lifesaver for me, helping to tame my wild garden, without losing it’s essential wildness. She is obviously very knowledgeable about plants. So It is always a pleasure to see her and know that my wildflowers/weeds are in safe hands!

Viv – Exeter 2023

Claire has enabled me to stay in my house. I am 91 and only have a tiny patch in the front and a small patio at the back. I have beds and a number of pots which I love, but can no longer manage. Claire looks after all this for me and I can sit on my patio, enjoy my tea, my flowers and listen to my lovely birds. Thank you Claire.

Betty – Exeter 2023

Claire arrived promptly and beavered away pulling up weeds for the whole 4 hours. It seems that she is willing and able to tackle any task and her RHS training qualifies her to do so.

Claire has undertaken many and varied activities in my garden over the past 6 months or so. I have found her to be pleasant, willing and able to tackle any job, small and large with skill and enthusiasm. Her horticultural knowledge is a valuable source of advice and guidance. I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Tim – Exeter 2023

We were looking to replace two sun-bleached and moss-covered garden benches and asked Claire for recommendations. She suggested that she clean them up and repaint them to match our other garden furniture. They look great and now have a second life!

Mr and Mrs M, June 2022
Claire did an excellent Job remodelling our front garden on a new build property where the development company had made an effort, but resulting in a uniform plant mix that didn’t appeal to us.  She was professional, knowledgeable, friendly and very hard working.  The end result is an interesting colourful garden, tailored to our soil and sun, and our preferences.  We can highly recommend her services.

Olwen fron Exeter, November 16 2020 (Facebook Review)
I contacted Clare because I’ve had long term health problems that meant I couldn’t keep up with managing my garden. I wanted someone who was knowledgeable and wouldn’t need me to support and advise them all the time. That’s just what I got. Clare tidied up the garden beautifully and cleverly kept to my style of gardening. It was such a relief! I now enjoy looking at and going out in my garden again. I hope to use her more regularly in the future. Highly recommended.

Carol from Exeter , September 11, 2020
Claire has managed to transform our garden in a couple of days. She moved large shrubs to new positions and reorganised our front and back gardens with apparent ease. We are delighted with her hard work and she is a joy to have around.
★★★★★
Lesley H from Exeter , June 26, 2020
Claire certainly knows her stuff!
We asked her to re-plant the small area at the front of our house and turn part of our back garden into a bed. We aren’t gardeners and Claire’s recommendations were just what we wanted.
The result was brilliant! In two days Claire turned a beast into a beauty. We are very pleased.
Highly recommended.

Julia H from Bickleigh , November 17, 2019
A year on and Thanks to Claire, our terribly overgrown garden is slowly taking shape. Frustratingly, ive hardly had any time to help (…I love working alongside Claire, she’s such a pleasure to be with), but Claire works equally hard on her own and really understands what we are trying to achieve. Can’t recommend her highly enough….just hope she doesn’t get too busy!!
