Garden Design Courses in Sussex

Over the last fifteen years, the profession of garden design has enjoyed something of a renaissance. Not since the days of 'Capability' Brown and the English Landscape Movement has the art of garden design been so much in demand.

Today an ever-increasing number of land and home-owners are appreciating the benefits derived from commissioning the expertise of trained garden designers.

An attractive, stimulating and well-planned garden not only increases the value and saleability of a property but also ensures that it is both practical and functional, providing all the family's needs or serving as an additional "room" or series of "rooms" within the site.

Several garden design courses are offered to suit varied aspects and levels from taster days to a professional garden design course suitable for those seeking a change in career. You may access information about them through the links on the left margin of this page.
