About the area
Working in Thornhill
Thornhill is a busy village in Nithsdale, set along the River Nith with the Lowther Hills nearby. It's a mix of village gardens and larger rural properties, giving us a good range of work in the area.
Around Thornhill we work on village properties, riverside cottages, farms towards the Lowther Hills, on one-off jobs and regular visits alike. We're based in Dumfries, so Thornhill and the villages around it are a normal run for us rather than a trip out of the way.

What we tend to see in Thornhill
Properties around Penpont and Moniaive tend to have more ground to cover, bigger gardens, paddocks, boundary areas, so a visit here usually takes longer than a typical town garden. It's a higher, more exposed spot, so we factor the wind and weather into how we plan the visit.
Out around Moniaive and Auldgirth the lawns are often bigger, sometimes with rough grass or paddock alongside, so we bring heavier equipment for those jobs.
Farms and smallholdings around Auldgirth and Sanquhar often have long runs of boundary hedge on top of the garden hedges, so we bring the right kit for the bigger jobs.
Around Sanquhar and Penpont the clearances tend to be bigger, years of undergrowth, old materials, that sort of thing.
