About Ferne

Thoughtful Design.
Exceptional Craftsmanship.

We're a Hertfordshire studio creating gardens that balance how a space looks with how it's actually lived in — designed with intent, built with care.

Our Approach

Gardens that work as well as they look.

A successful garden has to be beautiful, but it also has to work for the people using it. We design around how you actually live — the morning coffee, the children playing, the long summer evenings — and build it to last.

Design

Design

Every project begins with a clear, considered plan — layout, levels, materials and planting working as one coherent space.

Craft

Our landscaping team brings real skill to the groundworks, stone and structure that hold a garden together for years.

Detail

Detail

It's the small decisions — a joint, a junction, a single plant — that lift a garden from good to quietly exceptional.

The Studio

A small team, end to end.

Designers and landscapers under one roof means the garden you see in the plan is the garden you get on the ground — no handoffs, no lost detail. We manage every stage on site.

Client Experience

How Clients Feel About the Work.

From the first sketch to the final paving, the whole process felt calm and considered. The garden looks better than we imagined.
Example clientHarpenden
They understood exactly what we wanted before we'd finished explaining it. The outdoor kitchen has changed how we use the house.
Example clientChorleywood
A small, awkward space made to feel generous. The planting alone has transformed the whole feel of the garden.
