Landscaping in Gosport

Landscaping for Gosport's gardens

Gosport occupies a peninsula surrounded by the Solent and Portsmouth Harbour, which gives it a distinct microclimate — milder winters but stronger coastal winds than inland areas. Gardens here need wind-tolerant planting, robust boundary treatments and materials that can withstand exposure to salt air. Many of Gosport's housing plots are modest in size, particularly in the denser parts of town, making efficient use of space a priority in our designs. The seafront areas of Lee-on-the-Solent and Alverstoke offer larger gardens in more exposed positions where our coastal landscaping expertise comes into its own.

Gosport's urban core consists largely of Victorian and Edwardian terraces and interwar semis with compact gardens, where clever design can maximise every square metre. The seafront villages of Lee-on-the-Solent and Alverstoke have larger, often more exposed plots where coastal planting and robust hard landscaping are essential.
