I'd love to hear more about your project and how I may be able to help. There are no requirements on the size or state of your outdoor space, any part, or all of it, can be transformed to improve your experience, and in-line with your budget.

What happens next?
I will personally get back to you within 24 – 48 hours to set up a time to meet or speak about your exciting new project.
I'll send you a pre-meeting guide to help you prepare for the design meeting to get the most out of our time together.
During our meeting, I'll find out more about what is driving and inspiring your project, and what you're looking to achieve. We’ll also map out your project’s next steps and how contractors will be part of that.
After the meeting we will summarise our discussion, providing you with a clear roadmap outlining what happens next and how you can best move forward.
How much will it cost?
You can book a free consultation with me to talk more about your project. Following that first meeting together, I'll send you a design proposal that breaks down each stage of the process, and fees involved if you decide to proceed.
Pricing a garden design project is just like an interior design project. The cost is determined by the size of the space, it's state at starting point, and the scope of the transformation desired. This is best done once I've had the opportunity to meet you and find out more about what you're looking to achieve.
KIND WORDS FROM OUR CLIENTS
'Charis helped me to understand how space, light, plants and careful landscaping could work to create a beautiful outdoor haven even in a small back yard. She made the planning fun and interesting, listened carefully to my own ideas and was hands on from beginning to end making sure that the result was just what I wanted. I was so happy with it that I asked her to redesign my front garden as well! I highly recommend True North Gardens and would turn to Charis again for any future project.'
Shirley, Tynemouth
KIND WORDS FROM CLIENTS
Charis was an absolute delight to work with! Her vision and design ideas were truly amazing, and she captured everything we wanted in multiple designs, giving us plenty of options to consider. She provided clear budgets for each option and was incredibly flexible, ensuring we got exactly what we wanted while staying within our desired budget. She fully understood our brief and brought so much enthusiasm and fun to the process. We are over the moon with our finished garden—it’s everything we hoped for and more! Charis even designed, sourced and planted all of our trees and plants, and knowing everything was in such capable hands gave us total peace of mind. If you’re looking for a talented, passionate, and dedicated garden designer, I would thoroughly recommend Charis. She is absolutely incredible!

KIND WORDS FROM CLIENTS
We have a large garden that we knew we could make more use of, and we wanted to create a covered shelter area so that we could sit outside more. However with two boys and a dog, we wondered whether we’d get the relaxation area we wanted! Charis was brilliant at understanding all the family needs and we have ended up incorporating a covered shelter with a corner sofa, a BBQ area and a lawn area bordered with some really nice planting. Charis even designed a hidden sports area for the kids with rubber matting and a basketball hoop, which isn’t visible from the house but hides neatly behind our outdoor shelter. Charis even cleverly designed the planting to be dog-friendly and fragrant, so that any stray footballs would only knock robust plants like lavender and release the perfume. The garden functions perfectly for all of us, and we’ve been able to stretch our outdoor usage from a couple of weeks in the summer right through the autumn and spring, with pizza oven nights in the shelter in colder months to summer BBQs with friends in the summer. It’s transformed our enjoyment of our garden, and was the best investment in our home.

KIND WORDS FROM OUR CLIENTS
My project was very complex within a fairly small space and the attention to detail and level of diligence were a delight to see. Charis really understood what I wanted to achieve better than I did and came up with designs that were had to choose berween. She found creative solutions to create a space that I continually enjoy using.

KIND WORDS FROM MY CLIENTS
We had a boring new build garden and knew we wanted something different but didn't know where to start, so the design process Chris took us through was so helpful. It was really exciting to see the designs become a reality. Our garden has been totally transformed and we couldn't be happier.
