Landscaper in Ellon
Thistle Landscapes provides landscaping, fencing and paving services in Ellon and the surrounding Formartine area. Ellon is a market town on the banks of the River Ythan, around sixteen miles north of Aberdeen, and has grown considerably in recent years while keeping its older centre around the river and the Ellon Castle Gardens. The gardens and outdoor spaces in and around Ellon range from established plots on the sheltered ground near the Ythan to newly built properties on the estates at the edges of the town, along with larger rural gardens and farmland boundaries out towards Tarves, Methlick and Udny. We have been working in this area for 35 years and understand what outdoor spaces here need to look good and last well.

Fence Contractor
Fencing on the Aberdeenshire coast faces serious wind pressure, and the choice of fence type and construction quality matters enormously in this location. Our fencing services in Ellon include Timber Fence Installation, Panel Fence Replacement, Garden Gate Supply and Fitting, Close Board Fencing, Post and Rail Fencing, and Fence Repair and Re-posting. We build fences to handle the coastal conditions and use concrete posts and pressure-treated timber as standard.
Paving Contractor
Our paving team serves Ellon and the surrounding area with Patio Slabbing and Installation, Block Paving Driveways, Garden Path Laying, Natural Stone Paving, Wall Building and Repairs, and Repointing and Paving Repairs. We prepare surfaces correctly for the freeze-thaw conditions common in coastal Aberdeenshire and build everything to last.
ABOUT US
The landscape around Ellon is varied and distinctive. The River Ythan and its wooded banks running through the centre of town, the agricultural land inland towards Tarves and Methlick, and the low-lying ground stretching down the valley towards Newburgh and the Ythan estuary all create different conditions for outdoor work. We have laid turf and designed gardens on the newer estates around Ellon, built fencing on exposed rural plots out towards Udny and Pitmedden, and paved patios and paths on properties in the older parts of town and along the A975 between Ellon and Newburgh.
