Cobham landscaping

Garden design, patios, and planting

At Flourish Landscaping, we create beautifully designed gardens that are tailored to Cobham homes and lifestyles.

Cobham gardens and local considerations

Cobham gardens reflect the area’s semi-rural character and mix of period properties, substantial detached homes, and village-centre cottages. Gardens here range from larger plots with mature boundaries near Painshill Park and Oxshott borders, to more compact properties closer to the High Street and Downside. The underlying clay soil throughout Cobham affects drainage, lawn health, and planting decisions, while many properties feature established trees — both within gardens and along tree-lined roads — that provide character but also create shade and root competition.

The proximity to Painshill Park and surrounding green belt gives Cobham a distinctly leafy, established feel, and gardens often adopt naturalistic planting schemes with informal boundaries and layered structure. Larger properties allow for specimen trees, structural hedging, and formal elements, while village-centre gardens require more compact, well-considered designs that maximize space without sacrificing seasonal interest. Conservation area sensitivities apply to parts of the village, meaning hard landscaping and boundary treatments sometimes require careful planning.

Understanding these site-specific realities ensures that design, construction, and maintenance decisions are made with long-term garden performance in mind.

Recent work in Cobham

Flourish Landscaping has completed projects across Cobham, including garden redesigns for larger properties requiring structural planting and drainage solutions, contemporary schemes for family homes near Downside, and planting designs suited to Cobham’s semi-rural character. Recent work has addressed clay soil management, shade tolerance in gardens with mature boundary trees, and the creation of year-round structure through layered, naturalistic planting appropriate to the area’s village setting.

Our work throughout the area has granted us the following well suited skills for Cobham:

  • Experience with larger gardens that allow for structural hedging, specimen planting, and formal design elements
  • Deep understanding of clay soil conditions and the drainage solutions required throughout the area
  • Knowledge of naturalistic planting schemes suited to Cobham’s semi-rural, green belt context
  • Familiarity with shade management and root competition from mature trees
  • Understanding of conservation area planning sensitivities in parts of Cobham village
  • Regular maintenance visits throughout Cobham, Oxshott, Stoke D’Abernon, and surrounding areas
