The Bark Yard

A stylish dog garden full of inspiration to create the ultimate retreat for your pooch at home.

This NEW feature is designed to showcase how gardens can be both beautiful and enriching for dogs, putting their welfare and natural behaviours at the heart of the space.

From stick libraries and cooling pads to spa showers and treat stations, it's packed with clever features designed with tail-wagging joy in mind.

No furry visitors allowed at the show, but plenty of ideas to take home for them for them!

Meet Réli Farjon and Laurie Davidson, the creative powerhouse behind 'The Bark Yard’. With 30+ years’ combined experience shaping homes, they bring artistry, intuition and trend-savvy expertise.

“We’re thrilled to be designing a one-of-a-kind Bark Yard just for dogs. Inspired by the vibrant energy of a Miami Beach club, it’s a playful, stylish space where pups can lounge, socialise and be pampered - complete with a dog spa, chic ‘bar’ area and cosy day-bed for resort-style living.”

The duo have styled for brands including Dunelm, Wayfair, Tesco, Ikea and La Redoute, and contributed to some of the UK’s most loved home titles.

Get to know the zones in The Bark Yard

A shaded sanctuary for dogs and their humans to unwind. Beneath a relaxed canopy, this multifunctional lounge invites you to stretch out while your pup settles in.

At its heart is a clever pull-out sandbox, topped with cushions for laid-back lounging with a ball pit dig zone for playful paws.

A polished pit stop for pampered pups. Complete with a built-in shower and open shelving for towels, dog robes and grooming essentials, the Pooch Parlour blends practicality with playful styling.

Functional, photogenic and fashion-forward — because every good dog deserves a proper glow-up.

A self-serve hydration station for thirsty pups! Designed with low-set drink bowls, and shelves lined with labelled treats, it’s the perfect corner of the garden that's equal parts functional and photo-ready. 

An energetic play zone for dogs who like to make a splash. Complete with a mini pool for cooling off and a compact agility frame for climbing, balancing and showing off, this space is designed for movement and momentum.

It’s part splash zone, part obstacle course, giving pups the chance to burn energy, build confidence and have their main-character moment.

A sensory garden designed for curious noses. This calm, stroll-worthy space invites dogs to sniff, explore and gently decompress, while owners enjoy a beautifully styled garden moment.

Planted with dog-friendly favourites such as rosemary, sage, calendula, cornflower and sunflower, it’s a fragrant, feel-good pause within the wider experience.

Because for dogs, the world begins with scent — and this is their chance to truly stop and smell it.
