How to create a perfect outdoor dining space

Once the weather gets warmer there is nothing better than enjoying al fresco dining in your own garden. Here we provide some low-cost ideas on how to create the perfect outdoor dining space for your garden.

Outdoor dining tables

The right outdoor dining table is vital for creating a perfect outdoor dining space. For small gardens bistro sets are perfect. They normally sit one or two people and they are ideal for smaller spaces and are usually light enough to be moved around the garden. There are also lots of different styles of bistro sets from wooden versions to metal designs and, with many costing less than £100, they offer fantastic value for money.

If you have a large family or regularly have family and friends visit during summer, garden picnic tables are the perfect choice for outdoor dining. Traditional rectangle tables suit all styles and shapes of gardens and are great for families who regularly enjoy eating outdoors. Alternatively, round picnic tables are ideal for large gardens and those who like to socialise.

Contemporary gardens really suit garden sofa sets and they are fantastic for casual, laid-back outdoor dining. Outdoor sofa sets are like bringing your living room outdoors and are perfect for outdoor lunches.

Garden structures

While it’s great to sit in the sun, when eating outdoors it is often nice to be in the shade – especially for children. Adding a gazebo or pergola is an easy and low-cost way of creating a shaded area to enjoy your outdoor dining. There are many different types of gazebos and pergolas to choose from, including wooden permanent structures and removable canopies.

Barbecues

Summertime is barbeque time, so now is the perfect time to make sure your barbeque is ready for the warm summer weather. We have a wide range of barbecues and accessories available to make it easy to ensure that you have the right one for your barbecuing needs. If you are planning barbeque parties ensure that you have one large enough to cook food for all your family and friends. While we also have a wide range of smaller barbecues available for quick mid-week and small family barbecues. We even have charcoal available so that you don’t run out when you go to light your barbecue this summer.
