The Perfect Garden Benches from Sloane & Sons

Right now is a time that many of us are spending more time in the garden. Something I am sure with summer on its way, is only going to increase. So no doubt you will need some garden benches!

Many of us are looking for ways to turn our garden into a usable extension of our own homes.

This is where Sloane & Sons comes in, as they are a company that offers a quality range of garden benches and accessories.

Sloane & Sons

Founded in 1989 by Gerry Sloane, the foundation of this company is keeping things simple by offering high-quality products and keeping its promises.

They are actually a local company to me, having been founded and still working from Burton-on-Trent.

Historically, they began life as a company manufacturing cushions and soft furnishings. From here, they grew to offer essential products for both the home and the garden.

When it comes to their garden bench ranges, these are made from high-quality teak. With a range put together by researching what people want from seating and working with some of the world’s leading manufacturers of outdoor seating, they now have a range of outdoor teak benches and memorial seats, which are simple to choose from.

I thought I would share with you some of my favourite picks from the Sloane & Sons website.

Banana Teak Couples Garden Bench.

If you are after a bench for two, the couples range might be just for you.

Sometimes known as a kissing seat, this bench offers the perfect seat for 2, with a small table in between.

With a curved style and set as a half-moon, this seat is the perfect romantic bench, which you can place in your favourite location. This bench is a perfect addition to your outdoor space.

The Banana Teak Couples Garden Bench comes in at £399.

Lutyens Teak Garden Chair

I really like the design of the Lutyens range, which offers a host of different sizes, from this single chair right up to a four-seater bench.

Alongside its unique style, it offers a supportive back and is made from hardwood teak, so it is perfect for standing up to the English weather (though please do think about getting a cover for any garden furniture).

I can just see this lovely chair tucked away in a favourite corner of the garden, where you can settle down to read or work.

The Lutyens Teak Garden Chair comes in at £175.

Oxford Teak Garden Bench

If you are after a larger two-seater garden bench, then the Oxford could be for you.

Made using traditional joinery techniques but with a modern twist for the back, this is the perfect mix of old meets new.

I can just imagine this being the perfect bench to sit on with a friend or family member, with a nice cup of tea and the time to catch up, something we will all enjoy doing in times to come.

This Oxford Teak Garden Bench comes in at £199.

Things to Remember When Buying Garden Benches.

While all the benches come with a 12-month warranty, it is well worth buying accessories for your bench.

If you are looking for some hints and tips on buying the perfect patio umbrella, then Globo Surf has a wonderful article that offers advice.

Weather covers will really help keep the worst of the British weather from your new bench. Honestly, we have one for our bench, and it really has made a difference to the overall condition.

Another must-have for me is some cushion pads as well. These can help with the comfort of a bench and allow you to while away the day in the garden.

Of course, which accessories you go for are up to you, but Sloane & Sons has a great range to choose from in a choice of materials.

Sloane & Sons also offers storage benches and garden storage solutions to transform your garden into a lovely haven.
