At Bestall & Co we strive to create inspirational gardens and landscapes where beautiful plant combinations complement fine quality hard landscaping materials.
We aim to create a living landscape that will change the way you view and use your outdoor space, and a beautiful location for you to entertain friends, relax with family and enjoy life outside. It's a mighty claim, but at Bestall & Co we believe we don't just design gardens, we change lives.

Services
At Bestall & Co we pride ourselves on making the process of designing and building your dream garden as stress free as possible. We understand that your time is precious, which is why all our meetings are planned to a strict timetable to ensure you are kept up to date with developments and have as much or as little involvement as you desire.
We design beautiful gardens and landscapes to improve your quality of living. Whether it's an impressive space to entertain friends, or stunning surroundings for you and your family to enjoy, we specialise in garden design to help you discover the beauty of your own garden. As designers, we create all the necessary drawings and specifications needed for you to extend the enjoyment of your home into the garden.
If you live within Yorkshire, Derbyshire or Nottinghamshire and you're looking to enhance your landscape, our designers can help you do just that. We've designed beautiful gardens and landscapes from York to Nottingham, Hull to Chester and even a few in London. We believe in creating impressive spaces ideal for relaxation and fun with family, and stunning landscapes for entertaining friends.
When employing a garden designer such as the team here at Bestall & Co, one of the first things we'll do together is develop a design brief. We use a design brief to comprehensively cover your current situation in terms of garden use. It takes the form of a short questionnaire. We'll normally complete it on initial consultation, based on what we see as well as what we glean from you.
Garden surveys are a quintessential part of the garden design process. On occasion, you may be able to provide us with one (maybe you've had some plans drawn up by an architect too). On most occasions we request one be done by a professional surveyor. Even for smaller scale sites we insist on a survey, in our experience it will save you money in the long run.

Working with Bestall & Co is a really fantastic experience. Everyone in the team is lovely, they know their stuff, they listen and they produce the most fantastic design solutions. We’ve had two projects completed by Lee and his team and we are over the moon with the quality, of the work, the design and how we are now able to use our outdoor space. Thanks guys you totally rock.

I can’t speak highly enough of Lee and his team. Lee is a brilliant designer and came up with some really clever ideas for our garden we would never have thought of. He and his team then brought those to life with an impressive 3D animation that meant we could see exactly what the end result would look like. He then guided us through the design process, helping us choose materials and planting schemes that would enable us to stay within budget and still look great. When the time came for the actual work to be done, the team that came to do it were absolutely brilliant - they worked so hard and

We cannot praise Lee and his team highly enough. From our initial meeting with Lee through to the finished garden we have been impressed by the level of professionalism, genuine care for the customer and meticulous attention to detail. The team worked extremely hard during some challenging conditions and were not satisfied until the work was completed to their exact standards. We have spent more time in our garden during the last 3 months than we have for the last 3 years. We are delighted with our beautiful garden and look forward to seeing it change through the seasons. We couldn’t have asked

Lee has designed a beautiful garden for us, he made the design process easy asking lots of questions to understand how we use the garden and what we wanted to achieve. We are delighted with the result; it is stunning, colourful, low maintenance (as we requested) and every one who sees it is impressed by the transformation. The gardening team were great implementing the design we were really happy with the finished result and they went out of their way to make the process as painless as possible. We would definitely recommend Bestall & Co.

We commissioned Bestall & Co to design and build the Experience Peak District & Derbyshire Show Garden for RHS Chatsworth 2017 on behalf of Marketing Peak District & Derbyshire. The concept and finished garden completely fit the brief that we gave them; it was a great pleasure to overhear visitors to our garden at RHS Chatsworth discuss how the formal Italianate garden and the open pasture, complete with metallic cows, was a great representation of the formal gardens of the area's stately homes and the beautiful open landscapes of the Peak District and Derbyshire. Bestall & Co were a delight to

Lee and his team were amazing to work with and delivered an incredible garden for us at Chelsea Flower Show. The design fulfilled the brief completely and we loved it so much we brought as much of it as we could back to Covent Garden. I couldn't recommend Bestall & Co. more highly for their aesthetic, professionalism and friendliness in doing a brilliant job.

We first contacted Bestall & Co. because we have been renovated our house for the last 8 years (a big project!) and the original garden had been demolished by builders diggers etc, while the structural renovation was being done. We were looking for something modern, (in-keeping with the house), low maintenance but with the wow factor and somewhere for us to really enjoy.
Lee and the gang have not disappointed!! They listened very careful to our requirements and came up with a stunning plan that met our budget. Lee was very patient, when we asked daft questions (we are garden novices) and changed
