We don’t jut sell luxury products. We also have a great range of value garden furniture and lots more affordable garden leisure products. The quality is great, it’s built to last, and everything is designed to add contemporary style and personality to an outdoor space.
Are you dreaming of an alfresco lifestyle? Maybe the pandemic and cost of living crisis have inspired you to take your holidays at home. If so your outdoor space is going to mean more than it ever has before. If you’d like to take the budget route to a glorious season of outdoor parties, late night celebrations, romantic evenings under the stars and garden feasts for friends and family, here are some fairly-priced alfresco goodies for you.
Value garden furniture – Affordable Mexican clay chimineas
We have a nice collection of beautiful genuine Mexican chimineas priced at less than £200. It’s a great price considering they’re made by hand in Mexico, shipped over oceans, transported to the warehouse, then picked and packed before being delivered to your door by a driver who works for the supplier.
There’s free UK delivery in with the price, which helps keep the cost down, and because they’re so much better quality than many of the cheap versions available in DIY stores and garden centres, they’re built to last. Look after yours properly and it’ll reward you with years of use. And a special fitted chiminea cover will protect your investment really well.
You can cook on your chim as well as use it for heat and light, but if your focus is the food and you’d prefer an actual BBQ, we’ll look at value BBQs next.
A great value BBQ for mouth-watering outdoor food
Check out our lowest-price barbecues, arranged by price from low upwards. A price of less than £200 is really good value for the Norfolk Grills CORUS kettle BBQ, for example. While you can buy cheaper kettle BBQs, they’re usually a bit flimsy-feeling compared to this one and nowhere near as well-equipped. The CORUS is a sturdy beast, which is why it comes with something rather special – a ten year manufacturer’s warranty.
What do you get for your money? A charcoal kettle BBQ with a strong enamelled steel body and lid. A total of five 4mm chrome plated cooking grids plus five 4mm galvanised charcoal grids, together making an interchangeable grill system for cooking all sorts of dishes. There’s an ash catcher to save mess and make tidying up easier, an integral temperature gauge, and a useful storage rack underneath.
Prefer a value fire pit to a BBQ or chiminea?
If a BBQ is too food-oriented and you’re not a chiminea type of person, how about a really nice low cost fire pit or fire bowl? Everyone adores the marvellous small version of the Dakota fir pit. It costs under £100 and is 50cm across, 30cm high. The chunky little legs are a delight, and because it’s three-legged it’s easy to keep it stable.
It’s wide and low, lovely to relax around, and the two hoop handles make it easy to move around when it’s cooled down. If you fancy cooking outdoors you can make it into a simple BBQ by adding a separate grill. We sell a medium and large version if you’d like to push the boat out.
Value garden furniture sets
Keter is the name of the game for affordable value garden furniture sets. The stunning Keter Tarifa 4 Seat Outdoor Lounge Set in Grey is a beauty. It comes in at less than £500 and delivers all the comfort and style you need to kick off an outdoor lifestyle you’ll love.
The handsome deep grey rattan-look bases, the lovely comfy pale grey cushions, it all goes to make an outstanding impression as well as being seriously relaxing. Just bring the cushions indoors in winter and bad weather, leaving the rest outdoors.
Value garden shade
We have some gorgeous garden shade options for you, including the lovely Norfolk Leisure 2.2m Elizabeth Parasol. It’s available in four colours including mouse grey, taupe and carbon, all of which go beautifully with the garden furniture set and other garden leisure treats we’ve recommended. It’s great value at £119 and there’s a larger version, a mighty 2.7m across, for £129. The biggest is a whopper at 3m diameter, for a great price of £139.
Affordable garden storage
Need a smart place to stash your outdoor stuff? Keter has a nice range in garden storage. At the most affordable end of the list there’s the Keter 70L Samoa garden storage box in anthracite grey, very stylish indeed. The curved edges, rattan-look finish and deep grey colour make it a great choice for storage outdoors as well as a sturdy garden seat for little kids. It measures H 45 x W 117 x D 45cm, it weighs just six and a half kilos, and yours for just £65.
