Craig Antony Ratcliff Gardens is a landscape gardening company, based on the Isle of Wight, UK.

Craig Ratcliff is the owner, and he employs a small team to assist in designing, constructing and maintaining private, public and commercial outdoor spaces.
With our busy environment we endeavor to also supply work to local artists, trades and craftspeople. We also offer work experience opportunities to students of the island college.

It is our aim to always be outstanding in the design, construction and longer term development of residential gardens, public and commercial spaces, and outwards to the ecology of the Island.
We are proud to offer a personal and tailored service that will suit both you and your garden.

Meet the team...


I am Craig, the proprietor of Craig Antony Ratcliff Gardens.

Craigs qualifications: My horticultural, design and construction skills have been gained with excellent training at ‘London Gardens’ and ‘Clifton Nurseries’; and of course many years of hard work! My academic years rewarded me with a BA Honours in 3D design.

A little bit of history: After gaining 8 years experience with gardens and customers across London, Jemma and Craig relocated their family and business to Ryde in 2006. They wanted to live near to the coast and enjoy a more rural environment. The move to the ‘gardening Isle’ has been great for the family and the business.

Craig's business aim: to be outstanding in the design, construction and development of the Island’s private gardens, public and commercial spaces, and to enrich the ecology of the Island.


Warren was our first member of staff since being on Island. He completed his horticultural training at the Island college in 2006 with a double distinction. He has been working along side me for over a year now. Warren is always looking for inspiration. He is also a successful sailor.


Sam started working with us more recently and has quickly proved himself as a great asset to the team. He has recently left sixth form with 6 A levels under his hat! Sam is now embarking on an evening wood working course at the Island college. He has an interest in the sustainable building industry, enjoys sports, going to the gym and learning new things.
