Trend Alert: Al Fresco Dining

We’ve enjoyed quite a few garden gatherings over the last few months and with more hot weather on the horizon, we’re in for a long summer of alfresco dining. No wonder it’s fast becoming a trend, then! Get your garden ready for guests with these key pieces…

 

The furniture set 

This sleek five-piece garden furniture set is modern and stylish – we love the contrast black and natural finish. Perfect for sitting in the shade with a fresh salad and something bubbly.

The drinks pitcher 

When friends pop over for fruit punch, this cool terracotta pitcher is the perfect way to pour it out. And it’ll look great on your table, too. 

The appetiser platter

Everyone knows alfresco dining done best involves a platter of picky bits – this lush lacquered set with individual trays is perfect for passing around those sweet and salty snacks. 

 

The drinks trolley 

When you’re out enjoying a spot of sun, you don’t want to be going back and forth to the kitchen every five minutes. This rollout trolley makes an ideal place to store drinks, so you can top up while talking. 

The sun’s gone down, the fairy lights are on and it’s time for a cuppa – we love those robust metal mugs for that rustic, campfire feel.
