English-Speaking Gardeners in Madrid

I had an excellent experience with Madrid Garden Design. They did really detailed designs, listened to the vision and the colours I wanted, and worked with our tricky garden with lots of shade. We also had a closed pipe span last year and they worked really hard to make sure the flowers grew and the colours all worked together, and the garden in the summer was wonderful to sit in. They are still supporting us and will come back in March or April to keep going and maintaining it.

I moved into a new house with a very sad back garden, so I hired Annabel to give me some designs. We did a questionnaire and talked through different options and how much maintenance I wanted, and she got the plans to me really quickly, incorporated the plants I already had, checked what was in the right area and soil, and sent planting plans. Communication was really prompt, the work was done very quickly, and there was great attention to detail about where my paving slabs should go and how much I would need. It was a very pleasant experience with no stress, the design is just really good, and it’s still my favourite part of my house, so I would recommend her.

I found them on Google, liked the examples and recommendations, and from the start Sarah and then Annabel were really friendly and really knowledgeable, taking time to understand what we wanted, asking questions that wouldn’t have occurred to us, and looking at where the sun was and which parts were shady. They helped with the enabling works - knocking a garage down, getting surveys - and then the full design with Annabel on Teams and Zoom was fine, with WhatsApp and email making the distance not matter at all. They handled procurement and tendering, liaised with the landscapers, gave advice about trees, and their recommendation of Rightscapes was brilliant, so we didn’t have to do a lot of liaison. The garden is now built with a summer house and areas we can use all year round, it looks wonderful even in January and has made a massive difference to our lives and well-being - we couldn’t be happier, and the price felt fair.
