Natural designs
Based in Gloucestershire Five Valleys Natural Pools is in partnership with Biotop, who have been spearheading the design and construction of natural swimming pools in Europe since 1985. Designing, building and maintaining beautiful gardens and grounds surrounding their eco- friendly pools, is what Five Valleys Landscaping
provides for their customers and say that the scope and style of a natural swimming pond or pool is unlimited so the design is always driven by the client’s requirements and the surrounding landscape.
Tony Dowie of Five Valleys says: “The look of an urban garden may differ greatly from a rural site and it is the utilisation of local materials in conjunction with the appearance of the property that creates the design challenge. The use of paving in and around the pool and also our natural deck platforms, allow us to create practical and beautiful structural elements to the pool area. The use of natural stone, rocks and terrestrial planting also allows us to blend the pool into the surrounding landscape perfectly.”
Ageing gracefully
Pollet’s range of SRBA stonework is ideal for pool surrounds, coping finishes and patio areas and have the advantage of being manufactured to a level of quality not previously found. The stones contain metallic oxides so age exactly as they would in a natural environment and are as hard wearing as they are handsome. The ‘bubble’ aspect design gives this range that authentic Mediterranean feel. Also in the range are wooden style duckboards which are manufactured from natural stone yet provide a perfect natural wood appearance but without the maintenance.
