Sunnier days are on their way, but if your garden could do with a bit of an update ready for the summer then these garden furniture ideas will help you to create the perfect outdoor space.
Whether you want an open-air space for relaxing or hosting garden parties, you need to spend some time picking out the right garden furniture that works for you.
We've got an excellent selection of stylish and affordable outdoor furniture. So, whatever size garden you have, we know these ideas will help you decide how to use your outdoor space.
The garden should be a space to unwind, so one of the most important things is to create a comfortable place to sit. Garden sofas are perfect for relaxing through the day and into the evening.
Go for a contemporary look with the rattan Orlando set, a modular furniture set-up available as a 4 or 6 seater that allows you to customise your furniture depending on your garden, style and needs. The textured weave adds a stylish touch to the garden furniture, but it's tough enough to withstand the elements.
Add brightly coloured cushions and create the ideal spot for enjoying your morning coffee or entertaining friends.
If you want to eat outside during the summer, invest in some garden furniture to create an alfresco dining space.
Opt for an extendable dining table to have plenty of space when entertaining guests over, and if you don't think you'll eat outside too often you could always move a small dining table from inside onto a dry patio. For a small garden or a balcony, you can choose a bistro set that's perfect for two.
If you're looking to maximise your living space, having an outdoor dining area can be a lovely way to share family meals and make the most of the outdoors. Our outdoor garden dining sets would be perfect for your patio or deck.
Choose from a more casual set like our Marbella that incorporates a comfy sofa as well as chairs, bench and dining table:
Or go for something a little bit more structured and formal, like our Bali set with comfy rattan seats and a dinner table. These would be great for conservatory dining rooms, too!
Make the most of every inch of your garden by using a neglected corner to create a cosy spot to read a book in.
Use one of the armchairs from our Orlando sets, or our super comfy Egg or Moon chairs, surround it with some planters or trellises and make your own little hideaway to escape from the world. With a few cushions, a throw, and a side table to perch a drink on, you'll have the perfect spot to relax all day.
Invest in a comfortable sun lounger so that you can lie down and soak up the sun when it's out. There are plenty of options that will suit all garden sizes.
Choose fold-up loungers in a bright colour or pattern to create a holiday vibe in your garden. Or pick a bigger wooden sun lounger with some neutral coloured cushions for a more classic look, but make sure that it has wheels so you can easily move it around and catch the rays through the day. Adjustable backs will also make it easy to stay comfortable throughout the day.
Don't forget to create some shade so that you stay safely out of the sun during the middle of the day. Parasols are great for covering up your dining furniture. Alternatively, you can consider a gazebo or marquee if you're hosting a garden party.
For something a bit more permanent, invest in a wooden gazebo and turn it into an outdoor living room. It'll provide plenty of shelter, whether it's sunny or raining, and you can add garden furniture inside, and some bright cushions to make it the perfect garden retreat.
Once you've found the perfect garden furniture ideas, complete your outdoor space with some lighting so you can enjoy it in the evening. Add solar-powered lanterns or string lights to create a warm, inviting glow.
