Radlett
This luxurious Radlett garden project created an exceptional outdoor leisure space centred around a beautiful small pool, combining quality stonework with thoughtful design to deliver a resort-style experience in a domestic setting.
The installation of a small outdoor pool transforms the garden into a genuine destination for relaxation and enjoyment during warmer months. Perfectly proportioned for the property and garden size, the pool provides a refreshing retreat without overwhelming the space. The pool installation was expertly executed with attention to technical requirements including filtration, heating options and safety considerations, ensuring reliable operation and peace of mind for the homeowners. This feature elevates the property significantly, creating a lifestyle amenity that encourages outdoor living and provides a focal point for summer entertaining.
Surrounding the pool, beautiful stone paving creates an elegant deck area that's both practical and visually striking. The quality natural stone materials bring warmth, texture and a sense of luxury to the space, providing safe, slip-resistant surfaces around the water whilst maintaining an upmarket aesthetic. The stonework extends the usable space around the pool, creating generous areas for circulation, sunbathing and entertaining. The careful selection and expert installation of the paving ensure it complements the pool whilst withstanding exposure to water, chemicals and constant foot traffic.
Thoughtfully designed stone steps provide level changes where needed, creating elegant transitions between different areas of the garden or pool surround. These steps are constructed from matching stone materials to maintain visual consistency, with careful attention paid to proportions, safety and water drainage to ensure they remain practical and attractive in this poolside environment.
Comfortable deck chairs are positioned to take full advantage of sunny spots around the pool, creating inviting areas for relaxation and sunbathing. The furniture placement considers sun movement throughout the day, ensuring comfortable lounging options at different times whilst maintaining adequate circulation space around the pool edge.
The completed project delivers a sophisticated outdoor leisure space that combines the luxury of a private pool with quality materials and thoughtful design, creating a garden that offers genuine resort-style relaxation at home.
Project Details
- Scale pools appropriately – Small pools can be incredibly effective in domestic gardens, providing genuine swimming and cooling without dominating the space or requiring excessive maintenance.
- Invest in quality surrounds – Natural stone paving around pools justifies its cost through superior slip resistance, heat reflection properties and visual appeal that improves rather than degrades with age.
- Plan generous deck areas – Ensure adequate paved space around pools for furniture, circulation and safety; cramped surrounds undermine both functionality and the sense of luxury.
- Consider practical drainage – Pool surrounds need careful drainage design to handle splashed water and prevent pooling on paved surfaces; integrate drainage solutions into the stonework from the outset.
- Think beyond summer – Even when not in use, pools and their surrounds remain visible features; ensure the design looks attractive year-round through quality materials and thoughtful landscaping integration.

Having given Terry a blank canvas of a garden to work with, which was just lawn and fencing, the transformation to our brief of delivering a Tropical Garden, which would also meet our requirement to be a stunning social space for entertaining has been achieved. We can truly say we are delighted with the end result. All of our friends and family are wowed by our stunning garden. The build quality and materials used are of a high quality. Our garden not only has added value to our property but provides us with a beautiful, functional living space. Workmanship and professionalism provided by Terry and his team were excellent. The build took a little longer than expected but the end result has been worth waiting for. Additionally the service extended to whenever we have had teething issues with the garden, Terry and his team have replied promptly and resolved the issues post completion. We love what Terry has built and would definitely recommend.
