Luxury multi-level garden featuring Tobermore Tegula Golden Set paving with charcoal borders, Secura Lite walling (Heather), Garden Stone walls (Buff & Slate blend), Corten steel water feature, timber pergola, professionally installed real grass lawn, and composite decking with comprehensive drainage system solving severe waterlogging issues.


This comprehensive garden transformation in Kirkliston (EH29) showcases the premium quality and versatility of Tobermore's landscaping products combined with striking contemporary features. The project created a stunning multi-level outdoor living space combining traditional craftsmanship with modern low-maintenance materials and artistic design elements.
The garden features sophisticated multi-level retaining walls using Tobermore Secura Lite walling in Heather finish as the primary structural element. This premium concrete block walling system provides exceptional strength while offering a beautiful textured appearance. Complementing this, we incorporated Tobermore Garden Stone in Buff & Slate blend for feature walls, creating stunning visual variety with its mixed tones. All walls are finished with elegant slate copings, providing weather protection and a refined architectural detail.
The main pathways throughout the garden feature Tobermore Tegula Golden Set, a premium tumbled sett product offering beautiful golden tones with a naturally aged appearance. These tumbled setts create stunning curved pathways that flow organically through the garden space, complemented by charcoal border edging that defines the edges and adds contemporary contrast. The combination of warm golden tones against dark charcoal borders creates sophisticated visual definition throughout the design.
A striking Corten steel water feature serves as a dramatic focal point in the garden. The weathered rust finish of the Corten steel creates beautiful organic patinas that evolve over time, adding industrial-rustic character. Set within a bed of white decorative gravel, the water feature combines the natural textures of the stone paving and walling with contemporary metalwork, adding movement, sound, and visual interest to the overall garden design.
A custom-built timber pergola structure provides vertical interest and creates a defined outdoor entertaining zone. With integrated lighting, the pergola extends the usability of the garden into evening hours while providing partial shade during the day. The composite decking area beneath creates an ideal dining space, combining the natural appearance of wood with modern durability and zero-maintenance requirements.
A curved real grass lawn provides natural year-round green space with proper soil preparation and integrated drainage system. The professional turf installation includes comprehensive sub-base preparation with drainage channels connecting to the main system, ensuring the lawn remains healthy and well-drained throughout Scottish weather. The organic curved shape complements the flowing pathways and creates a soft, natural contrast to the structured walling.
This Kirkliston garden presented significant drainage challenges with water pooling and poor surface water management. Our comprehensive solution included:
The result: a fully functional garden that remains dry and usable throughout the year, with no standing water or drainage issues, even during heavy Scottish rainfall.
Critical to the project's success, we installed comprehensive drainage solutions including French drains, soakaways, and proper falls throughout all paved areas. This ensures the garden remains functional even during Scotland's wettest weather, preventing water pooling and protecting the property from damp issues. The drainage system integrates seamlessly with the water feature's circulation system.
