What customers say

On Wedgwood Drive in Poole, this outdoor living specialist has built up a strong body of feedback from homeowners after full garden transformations rather than a single structure, with work spanning large decking areas, aluminium pergolas and complete redesigns for both new-build plots and established gardens, including a property near Sandbanks. A recurring theme is the design consultation, where suggestions on levels, heights and layout features go further than clients initially expect, resulting in outdoor spaces that feel considered rather than generic. Gavin is named consistently as guiding projects, and reviewers repeatedly point to professionalism, punctuality and steady communication running from the first meeting through to completion. Several accounts also mention patience shown towards clients unfamiliar with the process, paired with careful attention to finishing details. One review notes Millboard decking as a pricier option that produced an excellent result, while another describes the firm's contribution to a show garden at a well-known horticultural event, where the entry picked up a Silver-gilt prize and a separate construction accolade, pointing to design experience beyond typical residential jobs. Services mentioned include pergolas, decking and full garden design and build. The business is open weekdays from 8am to 5pm and Saturdays until 1pm, with Sundays closed.

From our very first meeting with Lifestyle Gardens through to the finished project, the entire experience was exceptional. We wanted to create a premium outdoor living space for our home in Canford Cliffs, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations. The team designed and built a stunning natural stone patio along with a beautiful feature wall that has completely transformed the garden. They also supplied and installed a motorised aluminium pergola, which has created the perfect space for relaxing and entertaining throughout the year. The outdoor kitchen is outstanding, both in terms of quality and practicality, and the sauna has added a real luxury wellness element to our home. The workmanship and attention to detail throughout the project were second to none. Every aspect feels thoughtfully designed and expertly finished, using high-quality materials that really complement our property. The team were professional, reliable, tidy and a pleasure to have on site. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and nothing was ever too much trouble. If you’re looking to create a truly high-end outdoor living space, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lifestyle Gardens. They’ve added significant value to our home and created a space we’ll enjoy for many years to come.

Our garden was in desperate need of a complete makeover and we're so glad we chose this team. They listened to what we wanted, suggested a few ideas that made the design even better, and the whole project was handled professionally from start to finish. The finished garden has completely changed how we use the space, and we've already had friends asking who did the work. Highly recommended!

After speaking with several landscape companies, we chose Gavin Lee Ellison and Lifestyle Gardens & Outdoor Living, and it was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made for our home in Sandbanks, Poole. From the very first consultation, Gavin impressed us with his knowledge, professionalism and genuine passion for creating exceptional outdoor spaces. The process began with a detailed design consultation, followed by a stunning garden design that perfectly captured our vision. Once we approved the plans, the entire build was managed seamlessly from start to finish. We were particularly impressed by the company’s experience, industry credibility, award-winning portfolio and the standard of their previous high-end projects. It gave us complete confidence that we were investing in the right team, and they exceeded every expectation. Our finished garden, aptly named ‘The Outdoor Wellness Garden’, has completely transformed the way we use our home. The centrepiece is a beautiful premium aluminium pergola with an integrated outdoor TV, complemented by an outdoor sauna, cold water therapy tub and a stunning outdoor kitchen. Every product was supplied through their sister retail company, Lifestyle Outdoor Living, making the whole experience incredibly straightforward. Having a true one-stop shop for both the design, construction and premium outdoor living products made the project completely stress-free. The attention to detail, craftsmanship and communication throughout the build were exceptional. Every member of the team took real pride in their work, and the quality of the finished garden is second to none. Friends and family are genuinely amazed every time they visit. If you’re looking for a company that can design and build a luxury outdoor living space to the very highest standard, we cannot recommend Gavin Lee Ellison, Lifestyle Gardens & Outdoor Living, and Lifestyle Outdoor Living highly enough. They have created something that not only adds value to our property but has genuinely transformed our lifestyle.

Tried a few companies before and none really got it, then these guys just clicked straight away. The whole build took a few months but it never felt stressful, everything was handled properly and the ideas they brought were honestly next level. The finish is SO clean and detailed, like you can tell they actually care about the work. Garden feels like a dream now, can’t wait for summer!!

Honestly we spoke to a few companies before but none of them really got what we wanted, then these guys came in and over the 3 month build just completely changed how our garden feels. The ideas were creative in a way we hadn’t even thought about, and the attention to detail was kinda AMAZING. It feels like a proper dream space now, cant wait for summer to show it off!!
