Collington Winter provides professional landscape architecture and landscape design services across Devon. Our Chartered Landscape Architects combine creative design with planning and ecological expertise to create outdoor spaces that respond to their surroundings and work effectively for their intended use.

Devon’s varied landscapes, from rolling countryside and farmland to coastal areas and rural settlements, create different opportunities and constraints for development. Our approach considered the character of each site, helping clients develop proposals that complement the existing landscape while meeting planning and environmental requirements.

Landscape Architecture and Design in Devon

Rural Land, BNG and Farm Diversification

For landowners across Devon, thoughtful design and landscape planning can help support new uses while retaining the rural character of a site. Farm diversification may provide opportunities to make better use of agricultural land, while habitat creation, planting and Biodiversity Net Gain can strengthen its ecological value.

This can be particularly relevant for larger properties and landholdings where clients want to introduce new uses, improve existing land or pursue a more sustainable and self-sufficient way of living.

Development in Devon often needs to respond to sensitive landscapes, from AONBs and coastal settings to established rural character. We can incorporate green infrastructure and sustainable drainage into proposals, using planting and appropriate water management to support both function and biodiversity. Where a site is close to protected landscapes, watercourses or neighbouring properties, we can also advise on screening and visual mitigation to help development sit comfortably within its setting.

Our team can support the preparation of planning applications and associated landscape documents, including responding to landscape-related planning conditions, giving clients a single point of contact for landscape input throughout the planning process.

As a landscape institute Registered Practice with more than 15 years’ experience, Collington Winter brings together landscape architecture, planning and ecology. We take a holistic approach to each project, considering development, landscape character and environmental value together.
