With September in full swing, and dry, sunny days gradually slipping away, it’s safe to assume that autumn is very nearly upon us.
If you’ve spent the summer perfecting your outdoor space, be it for hosting family barbecues or having some quality alone time in the hot tub, all is not lost, and there are plenty of ways you can enjoy your outdoor space in the damp, cold conditions that the next few months have in store.
Read on to discover some of our favourite ways you can make the most of your garden this season.
Keep the barbecue burning
Just because the sun has (mostly) stopped shining, doesn’t mean you need to retire your outdoor cooking equipment.
With a high-quality wooden barbecue shelter, you can keep the coals burning whatever the weather, and keep the rest of your outdoor cooking space nice and dry too.
At Pheasant and Co., we’re known for our premium quality timber garden buildings, as well as our Cookout range, which features everything you need – from double-door cabinets with sinks to single-door cabinets and even wooden wine racks – to elevate your al fresco dining experience and enjoy outdoor cooking.
Hang some decorative garden lighting
As the dark, damp evenings draw closer, it’s only natural to want to retreat indoors.
However, adding some simple, affordable outdoor lighting to your patio can make your outdoor space feel much more magical, and help you create an atmosphere for all the family to enjoy.
Whether you choose solar-powered LED string lights to hang around fences or trees, or go for flickering tea lights inside old jars, garden lighting is great for enhancing your outdoor aesthetic and making your garden more inviting during the colder months.
And, being super easy to set up and move around without the need for mains power, you really can’t go wrong!
Invest in a hot tub shelter
Hot tubs are wonderful whatever the weather, but many people would agree that autumn is the best time of year to jump in.
With a purpose-built hot tub shelter, you needn’t worry about getting caught in surprise downpours, and you can ensure your tub is protected from the elements at all times.
Our hot tub shelters at Pheasant & Co. are made from premium quality, pressure-treated timber, offering excellent protection for your hot tub and standing strong against stormy weather.
Not only do they provide unmatched protection, but they also add visual interest to your garden and can even boost the value of your property if the time comes when you want to put it back on the market.
Buy a patio heater
If you’ve spent lots of time, money and effort creating a beautiful outdoor patio area during the summer, the last thing you want is to have to forget about it until next year.
Of course, nobody wants to be sitting outside when it’s freezing cold, but there’s one solution that’s guaranteed to help you enjoy your hard work even when temperatures plummet:
A patio heater.
Available in a variety of shapes and sizes, patio heaters do a wonderful job of heating up your space quickly, and allow you to stay warm and dry whatever the weather forecast has in store.
With gas, electric and wood-fired options, always make sure you’re choosing the best option for your space and budget.
If you do opt for a wood-fired option, we also supply high-quality, sustainably kiln dried logs and a range of accessories to help you enjoy the warmth this season.
