Garden design and planting plans

About Lloyd James Gardens


We love gardens and we've been designing and creating them together for 40 years. We form a strong team with Nick as the designer and draftsman and Rebecca as the artistic and planting specialist. Together we aim to create gardens that will thrive sustainably in their environment and delight our clients.

We provide design and advisory services for gardens of all sizes and budgets. We operate from three bases in London, Devon and South Wales making most of the south of the UK within easy reach for us.

Garden Services


We also love gardening, but when it comes to implementing larger garden projects, we will help you find landscape contractors and planting teams that will get the work done for you and ensure they follow our plans. As a trade supplier, we're also able to source quality plants for you at favourable prices.

About the Team


We're a small team so can provide a more personal and bespoke service to our clients than a larger businesses. But we also connect with a wide network of landscape contractors, builders, nurseries, interior designers and architects. See below for a selection of our associates.

Nick Lloyd James graduated as an Engineer and went on to gain a Post Graduate Diploma (Distinction) in garden design. He has been accepted into the British Academy of Garden Design.

Rebecca Lloyd James has an MRes in Art and Design and a diploma in Fine Art and has practical experience in creating planting plans for dozens of gardens and borders.
