garden august 2011 012

Love the seat!
I was looking in the UK for an arbour with sides so that I could sit outside sheltered from the wind and rain but enjoy the views from my garden with a cuppa.

This looks ideal but I doubt it would stand up to the Scottish winter unless I could splurge on a teak one and the waterproof cover!

I bought some chairs this summer from the Amazon.de site as there were so much cheaper for the make I wanted and they arrived within days - amazing! So I may take a look at the site again for one of these....however the shipping costs are likely to be too much!
Love the photo - It is great to see something really different!

Its the best thing we ever bought for the garden,its used constantly through the Summer,great for sitting out in the evening,tried to buy one for my sister in Scotland but the prices were ridiculous,we paid about 250 euro for ours which is teak in the uk they wanted over 400 pounds ye right,we put ours in the garage over winter,the covers do a good job keeping out the rain but its the misty moist air that gives the most trouble,gets into the fabric and causes mildew,hope you manage to get one you wont regret it.

This special sheltered bench I saw at the Baltic seashore, because it is quite windy. Must say, I like it very much. A very good place for eye to eye discussions :))
