Meticulous landscaping that brings structure, craft and natural harmony to your garden.
Thoughtful. Sustainable. Timeless.
About our garden design and landscaping services
Landscape gardening that begins with understanding your land and how you want to live within it.
Every Umber landscape is shaped through attentive observation. Before we pick up a tool, we take time to understand the character of your garden. How the ground sits, where the light falls, how water moves, which views matter and how you use the space each day. From there, we create a landscape that feels rooted in its setting and beautifully practical for real life.
As landscape gardeners in Warwickshire, we approach each project with calm precision. Rather than imposing a style, we work with the land to create a garden that feels balanced, enduring and ready to mature gracefully over time. Materials, structure and planting are chosen for longevity, quiet elegance and ecological sensitivity.
Whether it is a small garden or a full landscape transformation, our landscaping and gardening services shape spaces that feel as though they belong exactly where they are.
Testimonials
“I cannot recommend Umber Design more highly. From initial contact right through to project completion communicating with Mark on and off site was more than we could have hoped for. Professional, detailed, adaptable, efficient and highly creative.”

Our landscaping process
Every landscape is different, so our process adapts to the needs of your garden. The aim is always the same: to create a space that works beautifully in daily life and improves year after year.
Our landscaping and gardening services typically include:
Site visit and consultation
We begin by walking the garden with you, learning how you use the space and how it could evolve. This stage is about listening, observing and building a clear picture of what is possible.
Landscape design
You will receive an initial landscape concept that shapes the structure, layout and key features. This forms the foundation for a garden that is both practical and deeply connected to place.
Detailed plans and materials
Once the concept is agreed, we prepare detailed drawings, material palettes, planting plans, lighting ideas and construction details. These guide the build with clarity and precision.
Landscaping and build
As a team offering both garden landscape design and construction, we can carry your project from first sketches through to the final planting. This provides continuity, craftsmanship and a unified vision throughout.
Behind every Umber garden is Mark Wright, a Warwickshire-based landscape gardener and designer with a lifelong connection to craft and nature. Mark combines university-level design training with hands-on experience in forestry, oak framing and drystone walling, bringing a practical understanding of materials and structure to every project.
This combination ensures each landscape is not only beautiful on day one, but capable of maturing with integrity over decades. At Umber, we believe the best results come from collaboration, patience and respect for the land itself. Mark works closely with you from the first conversation to the final planting, shaping a landscape that feels personal, balanced and quietly confident.

Warwickshire landscaping FAQs
-
Our landscape gardening services cover everything from initial consultation and site assessment through to landscape design, construction and planting. We look carefully at levels, drainage, materials, structure and how the space will be used, then create a plan that feels natural to your home and the wider landscape. You can choose landscaping only, design and build, or a combined package depending on your needs.
-
We offer both. Umber provides a complete garden landscape design service alongside in-house landscaping, which means we can take your project from first ideas to final planting. If you already have a contractor in place, we are equally happy to provide design-only services and work collaboratively with your chosen team.
-
If your garden feels disjointed, difficult to maintain, or you’re unsure how to bring your ideas together, working with a landscape gardener can bring clarity and purpose. We help shape a cohesive plan that balances structure, materials and planting so your garden works beautifully in daily life and matures with confidence over time.
-
Yes. Small gardens benefit enormously from thoughtful structure and planting. With careful planning, even compact spaces can feel calm, spacious and well-proportioned. If you’ve been searching for landscape gardeners near you for a smaller project, we can help you make the most of every corner without the garden feeling crowded or overdesigned.
-
We are based in Leamington Spa and provide landscaping and gardening services across Warwickshire, including Warwick, Kenilworth, Stratford-upon-Avon and the Cotswolds. If you’re unsure whether we cover your area, simply get in touch and we will happily confirm.
-
Timelines vary depending on the scale and complexity of the work. Smaller projects may be completed within a few weeks, while larger transformations take longer as we work through design, preparation and construction. Following your initial consultation, we will outline a clear and realistic timescale tailored to your project.
-
You can be as involved as you wish. Our approach is open and collaborative, with clear stages and opportunities for feedback. We guide you through decisions thoughtfully, ensuring the finished landscape feels personal, grounded and aligned with how you want to use the space.
-
Both. Some clients come to us with a blank canvas, while others want to refresh a mature garden that no longer functions well. In each case, we begin by understanding what already exists and exploring how the space could evolve, then shaping a landscape that complements both your home and daily life.
-
Absolutely. Many clients come to us seeking gardens that are easier to manage, more sustainable or more supportive of local wildlife. We can design low-maintenance layouts, select resilient planting and incorporate features that encourage biodiversity while maintaining a refined and intentional aesthetic.
