There are few better ways to enjoy your garden and soak up the sun's rays than with a garden lounger. This must-have piece of furniture is great for making sure you get your daily dose of vitamin D plus, they’re brilliantly uncomplicated - a light, airy bed for lazing in the sun.

Loungers can be the focal point of an entire area, a subtle piece of furniture, or folded away neatly until the sunniest of days. The best loungers have UV protection so they don’t fade, parasols to protect your eyes from the sun, and in a few cases even handy cup holders. They're also easy to manoeuvre with handy wheels, and can fold down for simple storage.

We’ve put together a range of loungers - from classic wooden loungers to those with newer innovations like reading holes and varied them across size, style, and function, to suit a wide range of needs and looks.
