What to expect

Wild Swimming

See whether a natural swimming pool is right for you!

Step into a living example of what your future garden or natural pool could be. On our open days, you’re free to wander through the gardens, dip into our crystal-clear chemical-free pool, and experience first-hand the sense of peace and luxury these spaces can bring to daily life.

You’ll have the chance to meet our experienced team, ask questions about your own garden or pool ideas, and explore our design process from start to finish.

Whether you're just beginning to think about transforming your outdoor space or already have plans in mind, we’re here to offer guidance, inspiration, and honest answers.

You can also browse a curated collection of portfolio books, see material samples in person, and learn how our bespoke designs come to life.




Designing Nature, Building Dreams

Natural pools and gardens, designed and built across the UK.

At Ellicar, we specialise in designing and building breathtaking gardens and natural swimming pools that feel like an extension of nature. Whether it’s a wildlife-rich swimming pond, a flower-filled meadow, or a complete garden redesign, we help turn your vision into a reality.

We work all over the UK, offering a full-service design and build package—from initial concept planning through to planting, paving, and pool construction. Our projects are renowned for their natural beauty, functionality, and environmental benefits.

Clients come to us for expert guidance, seamless project management, and a personal approach that makes the process enjoyable from start to finish. Whether you’re starting with a blank canvas or reimagining an existing space, we’re here to help you create your perfect outdoor retreat.

Family Business

A family-run team with a passion for pools, planting, and people.

Ellicar is a family business, led by head garden designer Sarah, who brings over 30 years of experience and a passion for naturalistic design. Our team includes skilled pool builders, horticulturalists, and technicians—many of whom are family members or have been with us for years.

What started as a personal garden project has grown into a nationally recognised design and build company, known for our unique approach and award-winning results. Our clients appreciate not just the quality of our work, but the warmth, trust, and dedication we bring to every project.

We take pride in offering something truly special—gardens and pools that feel luxurious, are easy to live with, and make a meaningful contribution to the environment. When you work with Ellicar, you’re in safe, experienced, and caring hands.

Sat Nav brings you to our gate. For those coming from Misterton, ignore your sat nav and drive to the village of Gringley on the Hill, turn left onto Leys Lane, follow the road out of the village for about 1.5 miles and we are situated on the left, the last obvious property opposite a cream house on the right. Look out for the swing signs at our gate.
