Play Pergolas

The Wow Factor!

We are often asked by mums & dads in SW London if we can design them a beautiful garden with the kind of style, chic and wow!-factor that would put the Jones's to shame and at the same time to come up with clever ways to keep the kids happy in the garden without turning it into an adventure playground littered with bright plastic toys! So, we have come up with some ideas (now tried and tested) that will keep the whole family happy, such as:

• A trap-door beneath a decked terrace that cleverly conceals a sand-pit, paddling pool or small trampoline;
• A stylish wooden pergola off whose beams can hang swings, monkey-rings, rope-ladders, scramble nets (all of which are removable at the click of a buckle), with somersault bars and climbing walls between the posts;
• A wendy-house or toy storage area built into the same pergola structure in a neat and stylish way;
• Slatted screens positioned clevery behind which colourful toys (and children!) can be hidden;
• Raised beds to stop plants being trashed by footballs and careless feet;
• Raised vegetable garden areas for kids to grow veggies (and herbs for the more discerning!)
