Oooweee, chances are you’ve been making the most of the recent sunny weather in your garden, whether that’s been topping up your tan on your sunlounger, enjoying al fresco lunches under the shade of your pergola or parasol, or catching the last rays over a glass of wine at your garden bar.
No matter the size of your garden, if you want to chase the sun or shade around the space, you’ll need more than one place to sit. Just because your space is small doesn’t mean you can’t include several options, and these space-savvy bistro sets mean you can squeeze in an on-trend table for two.
