Journalist, presenter and voiceover artist Rachel Toal has explored many a garden belonging to Modern Gardens' readers, sharing the best of the country's inspiring glow-ups, with plenty of ideas for all to pinch for their own plots.
Rachel lives in Manchester with her husband, two children and cavapoo Luna. When's she's not writing and presenting, she enjoys running, cooking and unwinding with a glass of Prosecco, in her garden weather-permitting.
The decent-sized plot is packed with plenty of well-established shrubs and trees, but Rachel admits it's a work in progress; her interviews with Modern Garden readers have given her lots of amazing inspiration for her own garden.
So whether you're looking to transform an overgrown garden into a flower-filled cottage garden, want to create your own slice of the Mediterranean in your outside space or create a nature garden that's a haven for wildlife, join Rachel for a walk through one of these makeovers and get ready to feel inspired!
