Wooden garden arbour seats
These are an excellent combination of seating and shelter that complement every shape and size of garden. They usually feature a built-in seating area or bench surrounded by a practical but decorative structure of trellis or latticework that can support climbing plants. Your garden arbour with seats is also a focal point for your garden, an area you can claim as your own.
Your wooden garden arbour seat is beautiful once plants that like to grow vertically are in place. The trellis work around your structure is also the perfect place to grow fruit and vegetables like tomatoes. Varieties like Burgess Climbing and Honey Grape tomatoes make a perfect edible vertical garden, while pole beans, snap peas and cucumbers add interest and produce vegetables and salad crops. Arbour seating combines several factors that make a garden a good place to be, these include structure, focus and enhanced environmental gardening.
If you want to define areas in your garden, you need a wooden garden arbour seat and a corner garden arbour seat that will instantly create a cosy dining area, a relaxing reading nook or a socialising space for friends and neighbours that does not take up all your outside space. The Forest 8’x5’ Venetian Corner Garden Arbour Seat creates an instant garden room with a roof to protect you from the UK weather, rain or shine, socialising in your garden has never been so easy or so accessible.
Bench arbours
Bench arbours are another style of arbour seats that offer a charming mix of additional seating and structure, giving you a peaceful garden hideaway with the bonus of plant-friendly trellis sides. Whether nestled under a tree or standing proud as a focal feature, a bench arbour brings comfort, shade, and a splash of natural beauty to your garden, with options large enough to share. From classic wooden designs to more decorative options, there’s something to suit every taste and garden size.
