Whether you choose a water feature to harbour nature, or want an incredible focal point for your garden, Millhouse Landscapes has the experience and knowhow to create the perfect addition to your home.

Of course, there are likely to be a number of questions on your mind – Will the feature be safe for children or pets? Will you need to carry out lots of maintenance? Does my garden really have enough space? However, regardless of your situation, there’s a suitable option that’ll truly complement your garden. In fact, thorough planning and preparation will ensure your water feature becomes a timeless asset.

What are the benefits of a garden water feature?

There’s no denying, water features offer an attractive addition to your home and when landscaping your garden, a water feature should be high on the ‘must-have’ list. As such, you’ll be able to take advantage of a number of superb benefits, which we’ve highlighted below.

1. Give your garden the sound of nature

There’s nothing like coming home after a long day’s work, to spend a few hours relaxing in the garden. Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and create a personal retreat – right on your doorstep. With modern technology and stunning designs, you’ll have the soothing sounds of nature to enjoy, allowing you to wash away the stresses.

2. Attract wildlife and boost the ecosystem

From the moment your water feature has been professionally installed, you’ll witness an influx of wildlife – from birds to dragonflies. All natural wildlife needs water to survive and you’ll be creating a small ecosystem to boost the habitat around you.

3. Perfect for all garden sizes

Don’t be fooled into thinking you need a huge garden for housing a water feature. Contrary to this belief, Millhouse Landscapes will design and install a water feature that’ll become a beautiful focal point. Sometimes it’s a case that awkward, unused areas of your garden will be best for your feature too – so never rule out the prospect.

4. You won’t be overwhelmed with maintenance

Water features don’t need the same level of maintenance as you may expect either. So, you won’t have to worry about regular cleaning at the weekends and can instead lap up the sounds and visuals at your leisure. Cascading waterfalls are particularly great, by recycling water and limiting the growth of bacteria.

5. Transform your landscape into a stunning haven

Last, but certainly not least, a garden water feature will revolutionise your landscape and give your outdoors space a one-of-a-kind appeal. You’ll have a say on every aspect of the design and can choose a unique look to transform the area.
