Outdoor Living

at GATES GARDEN CENTRE

Outdoor Living at Gates launches this month with the latest new brands, new styles from old favourites and on-trend accessories for making the most of your garden this season...

GATES GARDEN CENTRE is getting ready for summer, and inside a dedicated showroom, you’ll find 14,000sqft of display gardens, set up for easy browsing to inspire and enhance your outdoor living space. “There’s something for every budget and taste,” says the centre’s Ali Bailey.

“From contemporary rope weave, marine grade faux leather, robust teak and slate grey aluminum; bohemian, mid-century and Scandi inspired furniture; to traditional and timeless rattan, wicker, sturdy hardwoods and bronze cast aluminum. All are on display, meaning you get to try before you buy.”

“This year we have added new brands including high-quality garden cushions from Madison and hybrid barbecues from Grillstream; we’ve also extended our range from last year’s new garden furniture brand Supremo; as well as retaining and extending favourite leading brands Bramblecrest, Kettler, Hartman, 4 Seasons Outdoor, Life Outdoor Living, Alexander Rose and Quest.”

“Popular brand, Supremo Garden Furniture was first launched at Gates last year and has been extended for 2023. We now stock the Iris, Vienna and Belfort ranges, as well as continuing to offer Barcelona, Catalan and Melbury. Iris oozes modern style in lightweight rattan with sophisticated urban black cushions. This chic range features practical, stackable dining chairs for easy storage. Vienna is a contemporary hand-woven range with darker anthracite weave, lava seat cushions and granite effect tabletops. The all-weather Belfort grey pergola with drop-down curtains, integrated LED mood lighting and retractable, louvred canopy allows you to switch quickly between sunlight, shade or full rain-cover.”

“As well-established stockists of Bramblecrest we continue to offer a huge range of their most popular garden furniture, as well as new styles for 2023 including the Bramblecrest Vienna range with its more contemporary modular floating design and eco cushions made from recycled plastic bottles.” >>

>> “There’s also the multifunctional Vilamoura patio set that can be configured any way to suit your style. Make a classic corner set, a large flat day bed, giant recliners or simply place the modular sofas opposite each other; and the eco-friendly Zurich lounge set with its stylish tree-free armrests and accents and eco cushions. There’s also a new premium, cantilevered Worcester parasol with LEDs, granite base and practical castors, for easy movement around your patio.”

“Also new this season is the luxurious Sempre range from 4 Seasons Outdoor, including the generously proportioned double daybed with its on-trend, Scandi mid-century styling in silver grey marine grade rope and teak.”

“In addition, there’s new, lightweight Classic Mesh with fresh sage green cushions from popular brand Kettler, including the Caredo, Savita and Novero ranges.”

“To complement your patio furniture and extend the outdoor season we also offer a huge selection of contemporary and traditional solar, electric and dual-powered garden lighting, as well as gas and electric patio heaters and traditional fire pits. And for protection from the sun or sudden showers there are garden shades in every size and design, from half round balcony parasols and patio sails, to large cantilevered parasols with pre-installed lighting and huge garden gazebos with electronic shades… and everything in between.”

“Add scatter cushions in this season’s maximalist designs or opt for classic neutrals, add a decorative garden mirror, wall art or a weatherproof garden rug to complete your look and ensure your outdoor space is as comfortable and welcoming as indoors. And with matching cushion storage boxes and made to fit protective covers for every set your new furniture will look its very best year after year.”

“This year we have added a new selection of hybrid barbecues to our range from revolutionary barbecue brand, Grillstream. These are multi-fuel barbecues, giving you the option to choose gas or charcoal cooking on the same grill. Start the cook using charcoal, and finish on gas, or mix it up and barbecue burgers over hot coals on one side, whilst grilling chicken over gas on the other. Flare-ups are eliminated with the Grillstream System as fat and juices are channelled to the front of the barbecue, and ash is kept completely away from the burners, so clean-up is a doddle.”

“As an established Weber World store, we continue to offer the full range of Weber barbecues including gas, charcoal, electric and smokers, alongside an extensive collection of Weber accessories and sundries for all barbecues.”

“You can also buy garden buildings on-site at Gates, from a simple shed for keeping tools secure to the most elegant and spacious garden rooms and hot tub shelters…and you can pick up the hot tub too!”

“All ranges are on show for you to compare finishes and get a real feel for the size and specification of each. We offer a free UK wide delivery service for orders over £50 and there’s a ‘white glove’ delivery service too if you prefer to have our team deliver, assemble and set up your new furniture, ready for you to begin enjoying your garden immediately.” n
