A well-planned care garden can improve confidence, routine and wellbeing for residents while making daily supervision simpler for staff. Around Holland Park and the Kyoto Garden, we create outdoor spaces with accessible pathways, safe boundaries and clear wayfinding. Sensory planting adds colour, scent and seasonal interest without overwhelming maintenance. Seating areas and shade structures encourage longer, more comfortable visits outdoors.
The Holland Park area is known for large Victorian houses, mansion conversions and elegant period properties, often with mature planting and level changes. That mix suits thoughtful upgrades such as handrails on short gradients, raised beds for comfortable gardening, and discreet boundary treatments. We regularly work across W11 and W14, where access can be tight and finishes need to match high-spec surroundings. Our designs respect existing architecture while improving usability for mobility aids and carers.
We start with a site survey and a practical design that prioritises safety, circulation and easy maintenance. You’ll receive a clear scope of works, material samples, and a programme that minimises disruption to residents. Our team builds with tidy site management, daily safety checks and careful handover notes for ongoing care. Local clients choose us for reliable communication, premium workmanship and a long-term approach to garden performance.
In the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, many gardens sit behind period facades with restricted side access and controlled parking. We plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to suit neighbours and care routines. Local soils can vary, so we specify the right sub-bases, drainage and planting mixes for long-term stability. Finishes are chosen to complement Victorian detailing while meeting safety needs for residents.

Costs vary with access, levels and the specification of safety features. As a guide, small upgrades (handrails, minor path works, a few raised beds) often start from £3,000–£8,000. A mid-size redesign with new accessible pathways, seating areas and sensory planting is commonly £12,000–£30,000. Larger schemes including shade structures, memory gardens and boundary upgrades can reach £35,000–£80,000+ depending on materials and complexity.
Most projects run from 2–8 weeks on site, depending on size and the amount of hard landscaping. A straightforward refresh with planting, raised beds and a small seating area can take 1–2 weeks. Full builds with new paths, drainage, shade structures and multiple zones typically take 4–10 weeks. Timescales are affected by access in W11/W14, curing times for bases, and any specialist joinery or metalwork lead times.
Many garden improvements are permitted development, such as replacing paths, adding raised beds and most planting. However, permission may be needed for larger structures, significant boundary changes, works near listed buildings, or if the property sits within a conservation area. We check the site context, advise what’s likely to apply, and can help prepare drawings or specifications if the council requires them. Compliance and safety are built into our design from day one.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our hard landscaping workmanship, covering installation of items such as paving bases, edging, retaining details and constructed raised beds when maintained correctly. Manufacturer warranties apply to specific products (for example, composite decking, handrail systems or shade structures) and we pass these on in writing. We also offer a clear snagging process after completion to ensure the garden is safe, tidy and performing as intended.
We tailor materials to safety, durability and the look of Holland Park’s period properties. Popular options include resin-bound or textured porcelain for accessible pathways, brick edging to echo Victorian detailing, and timber or masonry raised beds with rounded corners. Sensory planting can include lavender, rosemary, ornamental grasses and winter-interest shrubs. We guide choices using samples, slip-resistance considerations, maintenance levels and how residents will use each area day to day.
