We often hear despairing parents resigned to the fact that their green oasis looks more like a children's playground. Does it really need to be like this? The answer, of course, is no.

Incorporating within a design, features such as a Wendy house, vegetable patch, and a lawn for play, alongside a variety of plants and trees which look gorgeous all year round will attract wildlife and all manner of 'creepy crawlies' to your 'Bug Hotel'. Even the smallest garden can be both a pleasure for adults and an interesting, fun space for children.
