Based in Lincolnshire, Hope House Gardens' portfolio of work includes smart urban courtyards and elegant Town House spaces with large and small country gardens both in the UK and in France. The link between the house and garden is a carefully considered factor as well as creating a garden that will sit easily in its environment. Sue Neave has been a designer all her working life. Gaining a first class Honours Degree in Textiles she worked with fabrics and textiles before retraining in garden design, graduating with Distinction. Her instinctive flair for colour and form was easily carried over to gardens and her extensive knowledge of plants has established her a successful garden designer. No two gardens are the same, no two clients are the same. Some may want help to organise their ideas, others with the planting, some may want an outdoor entertaining space or to rationalize the garden when the children leave home.
