Different gardens need different benches. A compact bench suits a courtyard or patio; a 6 or 8 seater suits a family lawn. Our guide to the best bench by garden type helps you choose, and benches by size shows the options.
Made to fit awkward spaces
Gardens are rarely a tidy rectangle. Because we build to order from our Chelmsford workshop, we can make a bench to an exact length, work around a slope or narrow spot, or match an existing set. Tell us the space and we'll make it fit. Custom sizes are available on every order.
Styles and options
Every bench is built from C24 construction-grade timber with splinter-free routed edges and a non-toxic water-based stain finish. Choose the style that suits your garden.
| Style | Best for | Seats |
|---|---|---|
| A-frame | Classic garden look, most popular | 4, 6 or 8 |
| Rounded edge | Families with children, splinter-free routed edges | 4, 6 or 8 |
| Custom size | Awkward spaces, patios, decking areas | Built to your measurements |
Need something outside these? We build to your measurements. Custom sizes are always available - just tell us the space.
Built to blend in - and last
