I can imagine you are going to get some nice elevated views from your upstairs lounge room and deck. We used ECS sandstone look-alike retaining wall blocks on our property. They look pretty good and are quite a bit cheaper than the boral ones. They lock together pretty easily so you may be able to DIY. How high are your retaining walls going to be?
