About Muse
Muse is a heritage, landscape and conservation consultancy working with owners, organisations, charities and public bodies to understand, protect and realise the full potential of significant places.
Making Unique Spaces Exceptional
We provide high-level strategic advice across historic landscapes, gardens, estates, and heritage sites. At the heart of every project is a core belief: successful places are those that deeply understand their history while responding confidently to the future.
We help our clients uncover what makes a site significant, identify opportunities for positive change, and develop practical strategies that balance conservation, sustainability, and long-term resilience.
Our core expertise spans:
-
Horticulture & Landscape Management: Restoring historic gardens and designing long-term stewardship plans.
-
Conservation & Planning: Navigating complex planning frameworks for registered landscapes and heritage assets.
-
Strategic Development: Building practical visitor engagement strategies and robust environmental restoration projects.

Our Experience
We understand that no two places are the same. Every landscape, garden, and heritage site possesses its own unique character, challenges, and opportunities.
By combining rigorous historical research, modern analysis, and decades of hands-on practical experience, we help clients make informed decisions with absolute confidence. Our track record includes strategic advisory work for some of the UK’s most important historic landscapes and heritage assets, collaborating with:
-
The National Trust
-
National Heritage Organizations
-
Leading Charities & Trusts
-
Local Authorities
-
Private Estates & Landowners

Our Approach
We believe heritage should be actively understood, managed and experienced, not simply preserved.
Our role is to help clients navigate change in a way that respects the historic character of a place while ensuring it remains relevant, sustainable and valued for generations to come.
Through careful research, strategic thinking and collaborative working, we help transform complex heritage challenges into clear opportunities for conservation, engagement and long-term success.
