The summer months of 2021 are round the corner and there’s still an uncertainty on whether we will be allowed to travel. We have come up with some simple ways to get that ‘holiday feeling’ from the comfort of your back garden!
Just with a few simple steps you will feel like you are somewhere exotic in no time, providing the weather holds out of course!
Fire up the BBQ
Now is a great time to clean off the BBQ as nothing gives a summer feel like bbq food. At Austen West, we create bespoke BBQ areas which are a perfect edition for spending the summer months in the garden.
Set up the Garden Furniture
We’d like to think the sun will get warm enough that you will need some shade. A parasol is an essential, think sun lounger by the pool. You’ll also need some comfortable furniture. Whether it’s an egg chair or a stylish rattan sofa. It has to be perfect for chilling and enjoying the weather.
Our range of egg chairs can be found here!
Cocktails at the home bar
Cocktails (or mocktails) are a holiday essential. Although we at Austen West can’t deliver you cocktails to your back garden, we can give you a top tip.
Pick up some fruit ice lollies from your local supermarket, and stick into a blender with or without your favourite spirit. Just like that you have an easy daiquiri feel cocktail. We also recommend purchasing some sort of cool box. That way you can have cans or bottles on hand without having to move too far to the kitchen!
Water Feature
Of course not everyone can have a pool in the garden, but having something to cool you off always helps during the summer months. A paddling pool, or even a sprinkler can help bring a water element to the garden to recreate that holiday vibe.
Happy holidays at home, all we need now is the weather!
