Outdoor space can make a real difference to residents’ wellbeing, from gentle exercise to quiet reflection. Our care home garden designs in the BR2 area focus on accessibility, safety and year-round interest. We regularly work near Keston Common and Keston Ponds, creating routes and resting points that encourage confident use. Every layout is planned to reduce trip hazards while still feeling like a beautiful garden.
Keston has a mix of period cottages, large detached houses and country homes, and many sites come with mature boundaries and sloping ground. We design solutions that suit both compact courtyards and wider grounds, keeping maintenance practical for staff. Where properties sit close to Holwood House or along rural lanes, we factor in discreet security and clear wayfinding. The result is a garden that feels familiar and easy to navigate for residents and visitors alike.
We start with a site visit, access review and a clear discussion of resident needs, including mobility aids and supervision levels. You’ll receive a detailed plan covering pathways, handrails, safe boundaries, seating areas and sensory zones, with transparent options for materials and finishes. Our team is based 30 minutes away, so support and aftercare are straightforward. Local clients trust us for tidy workmanship, clear communication and a finish that stands up to daily use.
As a team experienced across the London Borough of Bromley, we plan for Keston’s varied levels, mature trees and exposed edges near open land. We also consider delivery access and parking on narrower village roads, keeping disruption low for residents. Drainage and surface choice are matched to local ground conditions, helping paths stay stable through wet spells. For the care home gardens Keston area, we prioritise clear routes, safe turning circles and easy maintenance.

Costs vary with size, access and specification. As a guide, smaller upgrades (handrails, seating points, minor path repairs and planting) often start around £3,000–£8,000. A more complete redesign with accessible pathways, raised beds, safe boundaries and shade structures commonly falls in the £15,000–£45,000 range. Larger grounds or complex levels can be higher. We provide an itemised quote after a site survey.
Timescales depend on the scope and how much groundwork is required. Minor improvements can take 2–5 days, while a mid-sized scheme with new paths, raised beds, seating areas and planting typically takes 2–4 weeks. Larger projects with drainage, multiple zones and bespoke shade structures may run 4–8 weeks. Weather, material lead times and working around resident routines can also affect scheduling.
Most garden improvements—planting, paths, raised beds, seating and typical handrails—are usually permitted development. However, rules can change if you’re adding taller boundary fencing, significant lighting, large structures, or if the property is listed or in a sensitive setting. We check the key constraints for your site and advise on any Bromley requirements, including drainage considerations and access standards, before work begins.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on eligible hard landscaping elements such as paving installation, bases, edging, raised bed structures and fixed features, provided they’re maintained appropriately. Manufacturer warranties apply to specific products where relevant. Soft landscaping (plants and turf) is covered separately because it depends on watering, weather and ongoing care. We explain what’s included in writing with your quote.
We tailor designs to resident needs and the site’s character. Popular options include resin-bound or smooth paving for accessible pathways, timber or brick raised beds, sensory planting palettes (lavender, rosemary, grasses and winter colour), and robust seating with arms for easier standing. Shade structures can be pergolas, sail shades or canopies depending on exposure. We’ll recommend finishes that balance safety, durability and easy maintenance for care home gardens in London Borough of Bromley.
