If you are keen to make the most of your outdoor space, this garden design consultation with horticulturalist Jane Heather is for you, whether it’s a backyard you're looking to green up or a garden in need of some expert advice.

Jane Heather graduated from the Royal College of Art and worked in film and theatre before turning her design eye to gardens. Her training in horticulture and design at Capel Manor and the London College of Garden Design provided a rigorous knowledge of planting and materials which she applies with an artistic sensibility. She delights in the time-based experience of gardens, the shifting colour and focus that turn with the seasons. The changing climate pattern is an over-arching concern and one that provides as many questions as answers. These questions are integral to the design process.

This is a 90-minute in-person consultation on location in London.

Enjoy a relaxing 90-minute hot stone massage provided by massage therapist to the great and good of Notting Hill, Tabitha Robertson. This ancient massage technique using hot stones relaxes the body at its deepest level, and is effective in creating harmony and balancing energy flow.

One stroke with a hot stone is equivalent to ten with a hand. As the heat from the stone penetrates into your deeper body tissues, your blood vessels open, resulting in improved circulation.
