Having a new home means it is the perfect time for hosting and entertaining guests and what better place in the summertime than your garden. However, we understand sometimes it can be difficult to know how to create an outdoor space that makes entertaining a success as well as keeping the authentic feel of your own personal space.
Below we have listed our favourite ways to spruce up your garden and give it that luxurious yet homely feel ready to welcome your guests this summer.
Garden Bar
The Forest Shiplap pressure-treated garden bar from BuyShedsDirect will wow your guests and keep the drinks flowing. This 6’x3’ bar is the perfect size to slot into your garden and when the party moves indoors you can simply close it up, secure the locks and you’re done. The security features on the bar also mean it can turn into a perfect storage space in between entertaining.
Garden Lanterns
Good lighting is the key to creating a homely atmosphere all the way from the heart of your home through to your garden. With the Solar Company Modern Lantern from Homebase, you can create a gentle glow across your garden. The firefly lights absorb sunlight throughout the day and automatically turn on at dusk just in time for sunset.
Pizza Oven
Take your garden to the next level with this Carmel Black Chiminea with a pizza shelf from Homebase. The pizza oven element is a great way to impress your guests and provide some entertainment as well as top class food. Fuelled by wood, it is also a cheap yet effective way to create a warm glow when getting cosy in the evenings and waiting for dinner to be served.
Garden Bed
Bring the inside comforts outside with the EVRE Black Bali Day Bed from B&Q. The shower-proof and dirt-resistant cushions provide a peaceful place to kick back and relax without the worry of mess, making it a perfect piece for your garden parties. The canopy attached to this generously sized day bed makes it a must on a summer’s day to provide shade whilst basking in the sun and the UV-resistant features mean your bed will look as good as new all year round.
