When it comes to lounging sets, it's all about relaxing. You can expect big comfy couches, smaller coffee style tables and possibly a couple of chairs thrown in for good measure. You may even want some sun loungers so you can soak up the rays in peace.
Lounging furniture sets tend to be larger and are often designed to fit into the corners of patios and terraces. Opting for a set that can be tucked away will save you space, the only problem is not everyone has enough space to put bulkier furniture in the first place.
Looking for more sun-loungers rather than a full garden set?
If you prefer to eat al fresco during the summer months, a dining set will better suit your needs. These come in various sizes, from 2 to 8-seater options and more, all of which are built around creating the perfect dining experience. For that reason, you can expect higher tables with sturdier tabletops.
Another advantage of this style is that if you’re short on space, there are dining options that can be folded away and stored. That said, these will be less stable and are generally for smaller crowds.
There's nothing better than a BBQ on a hot summer's evening. Here's our list of the best gas BBQs!
Luckily, with furniture sets for the UK, weatherproofing is a given. This is why you'll see a lot of metal, rattan and glass (for tabletops). All these materials are capable of standing up to the unrelenting wet weather. The only material you'll need to keep an eye on is untreated wood, as it can rot if left exposed.
Most outdoor furniture is pretty easy to look after. Woods, rattan, and metals can all be wiped down and stand up well to heat and moisture. The most effort will go into maintaining glass, but not because it’s difficult to care for. Glass tabletops are quicker to get dirty so usually require more frequent cleaning.
Finally, different materials give different looks. Of course, this is largely down to personal taste. However, we would recommend treating the garden as you would any other room in the house. Find styles and colours that suit your garden. For example, if you have an iron fire pit, maybe iron frame furniture would look better.
