Anyone?

Is that a fence separating 2yards?

Ok I see you have a fence now so please post new pics

Yea fence panels were not in but fence goes there. Pic you can see where sun is!

Do you have a front garden? If not, i would add grass. I'm also assuming you want the patio slabs to stay? Agree with moving the shed but also the bins. Is the shed area big enough to house a pergola and your sofa, maybe with a black pergola to match the door? Looking at pic 2 I'd create a triangular bed from the left corner of the shed to create a small square lawn with differing height plants to disguise the fence. I'm struggling with angles of the left fence (looking out from the back door) but would add raised decking on the left to square off the lawn and have the decking as your dinng area. If budget permits, maybe a small round modern self-contained water feature on the path to the pergola or if not on the decking such as this. I would also look at ways to disguise the water butt and bins with panels and plants

I agree that you should move the shed and bins as they are clearly in the sunniest part of the garden, does it face due North or East?

Could you post a plan of the plot?

Another thought, if you don't have a lawn could you get rid of the shed or have a smaller version?

I would consider a mix of gravel and slabs or really good fake lawn in such a small tricky shaped space.

We have a large front garden yes - but wouldn't really sit out there.

Patio slabs can stay but happy to move/re-do its not huge area so not ££.

We are going to move the bins down the side - its hard as that is our drive so there is not alot of room. But deciding to sacrifice drive for more garden as I love a garden even if it is a small space!

sounds good like the idea of raised decking was thinking about that to add interest / might make it look bigger.

If it helps pic of site plan you can see what I mean re garden, shed and where parking is! We are number 12

Tricky space.

What direction does the back of the house face?
Can the bins go in the front if you have lots of space there? Using willow screening to hide them all...

Creating different levels in your garden will make the space appear to be bigger and add more points of interest. The above suggestion is good, creating the decking/seating area where you get the most sun. Keeping the grass section and adding stepping stones can give the area more character.

This is ace - thank-you guys, really like the idea of a raised level think it will make it look bigger. We're def going to move the shed - we can't not really and shove the bins down the side somewhere. Thanks so much. Will promise to post pics when done!!! (Will be a while yet!!)

Really do appreciate this. Knew the garden would be small - the comprise we made for the house as everything else is ACE, but was a bit meh when I saw it - this has made me excited about doing it - so thank-you. It's going to be a very long term move so happy to invest in having something special.

Maybe paint the shed to inject a little colour and lighten it as well?

Thank you to all for your advice as you can see I took it and really pleased with the result.

Added extra patio for more space
Flipped shed to other end and created side gate area to store bins
Raised beds for plants
Decking area added

Really pleased

Obviously adding plants pots etc but looking good :-)

Looks fab:) good job and looks like you'll get great use out of it!
