Whether you’re looking to transform your garden into a space to wine and dine this summer, or simply a tranquil place to unwind and relax, Forest Garden’s range of timber garden furniture has a little something to make living outdoors a joy.

For alfresco dining or an evening’s entertainment, Forest Picnic Tables are available in a range of sizes with either rectangular or circular table tops. For something more contemporary, Refectory Tables and Sleeper Benches are available individually or in sets of 1.2m and 1.8m - they’re stylish, sturdy and easy to assemble.

Outdoor Garden Furniture

Utilise your outdoor space as another room

The trend in recent years has been to utilise your outdoor space as another room and not just as a place for growing plants or as a football pitch for the children. Create an enclosed space by putting up screens and covering them with climbers; add a parasol and you will have created a private, enclosed space. 

You can make your garden almost as warm and comfortable as being indoors, with stylish fire-pits and outdoor fires, comfortable all-weather furniture and warm snuggly throws.

Do you have rattan furniture in your garden? With it being one of the most popular choices for garden furniture there is a good chance that you do. Rattan furniture is exceptionally popular due to the fact it needs very little maintenance. Good quality rattan furniture is rust-proof, weather resistant and easy to wipe clean if there are any unavoidable spillages.
