If you're debating whether or not to invest in garden furniture this year, we're here to let you know three great reasons why it's a good idea – and why you're guaranteed not to regret it.

1: Being outdoors makes you healthier and happier

It's undeniable – spending time outside in the fresh air is good for you physically and mentally. Whether you have a large garden or a small patio to enjoy, getting out there will always make you feel better.

There are reports that being in nature not only reduces stress, improves our mood and sharpens our focus, but it also boosts our immune system through vitamin D exposure - shall we order for you now! Why not make this the year you finally sort out your outdoor space.

Although being active outdoors (for example, gardening or exercising) has benefits, having somewhere to relax outside encourages us to stay out in the fresh air for prolonged periods, instead of retreating indoors. Having a comfy outdoor area maybe to read a book or enjoy your morning cup of tea will guarantee you spend as much time as possible in the open air – and the more time outside, the better.

2: It's the perfect way to socialise.

Who wants to host a party inside whilst the sky is blue outside, or have friends over for tea and cakes in the kitchen when the sun is out? Not me! Summer is the season of relaxed entertaining, whether it's a family get together BBQ or catching up with your friends with a bottle of something sparkling.

Your outdoor area should be an oasis of your personal space away from the frenzied pace of life. When i design an outdoor space it helps to use the same techniques as you would inside. Are you just creating a living area? A coffe area? A gin and tonic corner? Can you also accommodate an outdoor dining area? Consider laying a sustainable, handwoven rug that will provide an elegant neutral base to add sofas, chairs and tables so you can flip of your shoes in comfort.

Outdoor furniture suits a whole multitude of social scenarios and creates a much more pleasant environment than being stuck indoors on a lovely, sunny day. We have all-weather outdoor furniture which can be left in place all year long, so your social season can begin as soon as the temperature permits. We also have outdoor storage boxes to put your cushions s in to keep them out of the weather so they last longer.

3: It’s an investment for years to come

Unlike cheaper furniture that comes and goes and gets damaged easily, good quality garden furniture is as important as a good sofa. Not only will you use it for many years to come, but high-quality garden furniture will also remain looking as good as the day you bought it for a very long time. We supply PE rattan with a hand woven mixed half round/full round weave for strength and durability.

Good patio furniture can last 15+ years.' Better still, if you invest in high-quality wrought iron or solid teak furniture, a little maintenance will see your outdoor furniture last 25+ years.

If you're looking for little to no Maintainance garden furniture, PE rattan is the perfect choice. There's no special care needed to maintain it – just cover it in the winter for some added protection.

If you spend money on anything, good quality furniture that gives you long-lasting use is a great investment, indeed.
