Hello! I’m Sarah, an RHS level 3 trained gardener based in Exmouth, East Devon.
I help busy homeowners like you overcome garden overwhelm and create beautiful, manageable spaces that bring peace and joy, not more stress.
Does your garden feel more like a chore than a joy?
Gardening here in Devon is wonderful, but it isn’t always easy. Whether you’re staring at the blank canvas of a new-build, trying to tame a border that’s got out of control, or simply don’t know where to start with our soil and coastal winds, it’s easy to feel stuck. But you don’t have to feel that way.
Let’s find the joy in your garden, together
I believe a garden should be your peaceful escape. As a qualified horticulturalist and garden designer, I combine professional design principles with practical, hands-on knowledge of what really works in our local Devon gardens. Having used my own garden to find peace during challenging times, my passion is helping you find that same connection, and create a space you can’t wait to spend time in.

What people say about me
“When we moved we inherited a reasonable size plot full of lovely plants that I had no clue how to care for. Sarah has been guiding me on how to look after my garden, how to maintain what I have and what is needed to fill the gaps (rather than weeds). She has worked alongside me for the last 2 years and boosted my confidence in the garden. I would definitely recommend East Devon Gardens for any of your garden needs, whether its general maintenance, an overhaul, or like me, for some gentle direction.”
