Grab a gazebo

As a result of the great demand for gazebos, they have come down in price drastically. Easy to store, they fold down into a handy sleeve and can be tucked into the back of the garage. Some even come with guy ropes for the windier evenings this summer. In fact, the lowly gazebo is handy all year round, allowing even snowy barbecues for those hardy enough.

Gazebos come in a whole range of prices. If you are just looking for something quick, easy, cheap and cheerful but which may not survive an entire summer and definitely not more than one season, head to Argos where you can pick one up for as little as £12.99. Tesco and Next do slightly more expensive, and more durable models, but if you really want to splash the cash try Four Seasons Gazebos. Offering permanent structures incorporating a solid built barbecue they may cost more but you will absolutely get your money’s worth.
