Alison and Janice moved to Goring-by-Sea after falling in love with the beautiful scenery there while on a weekend visit. It is the perfect antidote to their stressful jobs as a systems analyst and paramedic. However, their garden sadly doesn’t reflect this beautiful setting. With a budget of two and a half thousand pounds, left to Alison in an inheritance from her father, the couple want to create a beautiful, social garden where they can, at last, return the many BBQ invitations they have received from friends over the years.\n\nThe couple have a very specific theme in mind to turn this blank space, ‘new build’ garden into a relaxing, Australian-inspired ‘bolt hole’. Alison and Janice love the land down under, and have visited many times. Can the designers, Charlie Dimmock and the Rich brothers, come good with a design that will satisfy the couple’s desire for an antipodean outdoor space? Both offer the couple the cracked earth, beach look of Oz, complete with water feature and evening chill out space built around a fire bowl, along with dramatic southern hemisphere plants, like the couple’s much loved palm trees. With two twists on the same theme, will it be Charlie Dimmock or Harry and David Rich who get the nod from Janice and Alison when they go head to head in the pitch to win the right to make over the garden? And, with the clock ticking on the makeover, can the winning designer get the garden done in time? And will Alison and Janice love it?
