Japanese style gardens have also proven to be a hit in British gardens, because of its delicate simplistic oriental beauty.
Add a swimming pool or hot tub
A swimming pool adds a wealth to an outdoor space. When most people dream of their perfect home, they almost always see a big pristine swimming pool in their garden. If you are really looking add a wow factor to your garden, then this is an amazing feature to consider.
However, a swimming pool isn’t in most people’s price range and it can take a very long time for a swimming pool to be installed and if it’s an outdoor pool it will need to be heated, so this is another issue that boosts the cost of owning one. This where a hot tub or Jacuzzi becomes the cheaper and sometimes even better alternative.

Use plants and flowers

However, it’s important to be aware of the types of plants that grow well on British soil and climate. Daisies, Roses, Tulips and Bluebells are good examples of outdoor flowers that grow well in our climate.
Have a social area in the garden
Gardens are to be enjoyed, if you are looking to use your garden to entertain guest and host parties, then why not create a designated social space for you and your guests to socialise in. A social space can be as simple as having a table and a few chairs, or you can go all out and have an outdoor bar or table tennis table for creating fun social activities.
