Alder & Stone
More than landscaping.
A complete outdoor transformation.
A garden works when architecture, planting and everyday life are considered together — levels that make sense, materials that age well, and space arranged around how a family actually uses it.
We take the journey from early ideas through design, construction and planting, so one team is responsible for the finished space rather than a series of disconnected trades.

Projects
Spaces we’ve imagined.
Illustrative concepts created to show how a garden can be planned, built and planted as one considered whole.
Courtyard Garden
Contemporary outdoor living concept
A walled courtyard reimagined as a calm outdoor room — porcelain paving, corten planters and evergreen structure.
The Long Garden
Layered planting and limestone terrace concept
A long plot broken into a terrace, lawn and planting corridors so the garden reveals itself gradually.
Woodland Edge
Naturalistic family garden concept
Loose, naturalistic planting and a timber deck that lets a family garden sit quietly against mature trees.
Townhouse Terrace
Compact urban outdoor space concept
A small city terrace designed around built-in seating, stone underfoot and soft evening light.
Concept Visualisation
See the potential.
A conceptual visualisation showing how an uninspiring outdoor area could be reworked into a finished garden. Drag to compare.
BeforeConcept VisualisationOur Approach
Designed carefully. Built properly.
Understand
Learn how the garden is used, what isn't working and what the client wants it to become.
Design
Develop the layout, material palette, planting and key details.
Build
Turn the agreed design into the finished outdoor space.
Settle in
Final handover, planting guidance and aftercare recommendations.
Materials
Materials matter.
The quality of an outdoor space usually comes down to restraint: fewer materials, better proportions and joints that are set out properly in the first place.
Stone, porcelain, timber and metal each weather differently. Used together with care, they settle into a garden rather than competing with it.
Why Alder & Stone
Built around the whole garden.
Design-led thinking
Every decision contributes to the finished space.
One joined-up approach
Design, landscaping and planting considered together.
Details that last
Thoughtful drainage, levels, materials and finishes.
Made for real life
Beautiful spaces that still need to work for everyday living.
About
Gardens with a quieter kind of luxury.
Alder & Stone is a garden design and landscaping studio working across South Wales, Bristol and Bath. The work is understated: natural materials, clear proportions and planting that improves every year.
Luxury here means longevity rather than decoration — a garden that is built properly, connects naturally to the house, and quietly becomes the part of the home people use most.

Questions
Good to know.
Yes. Design and build are handled together, so the drawings, materials and finished construction stay consistent.
