Default Advice on New Plants!

Hello everyone,
I am new here, and also rather new to gardening. I am moving next month to a house that is south-facing and contains a tiny front garden. (At the moment the only thing in it is weeds...)

I could post a pic of the front of the house though I noticed on the forum rules it advises us not to post pictures right away.

I would like to do something right away to improve the appearance. I plan to find some flowers to put in individual pots, but I'd also like to plant a couple climbers of some sort to climb up the front of the brick house. Looking for something not too fussy, and that will grow quickly.

Secondly, in the back garden (which would be north-facing) there is a lovely wooden arbour that is quite tall. Currently it is completely without any plants at all and is crying out for something. I am also looking for something very vigorous and fast growing that will also look lovely as well.

I don't have a huge budget so any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Regards,
Sandra T
