Garden Arbours

Garden arbours are vertical structures with either two or four columns, a roof (generally in the Apex style), and sides that can be either screened off or left open. The lattice or trellis of some arbours in our range provides the perfect surface for climbing plants.

Our wooden arbours are available as freestanding structures, featuring a comfortable seat or bench underneath a sheltered roof. They are the perfect place for unwinding and enjoying a good book without worrying about rain.

Garden arbours are a great way to bring shading, seclusion, and protection to a garden or patio area. They also provide a structure to hang climbing plants and vines, which can be used to add colour and scent, to the area.

Arbours can be used to create an accent in the garden and usually stand out due to their natural timber or painted/stained finish. Despite this, they can still fit in nicely with the garden's other features and can be used to direct visitors and divide up parts of the garden into discrete areas.

Garden arbours and pergolas are both garden structures that are used to create shade and provide a pleasant environment in any garden. Both can be used to provide a sense of privacy and create a focal point in a garden space.

The main difference between an arbour and a pergola lies in their structure. An arbour is a freestanding structure that typically has an integral seat, an open front, and a roof, often made of lattice or trellis. Pergolas, on the other hand, are supported by posts and have a lattice roof and open sides, which provide more shade than an arbour.

In terms of size, arbours tend to be smaller than pergolas, making them ideal for smaller outdoor spaces. They also tend to be more affordable than pergolas and can be easier to install. Pergolas, on the other hand, are larger and more complex structures and may require professional installation. In terms of cost, arbours tend to be more affordable than pergolas, but the cost of both will depend on the size and materials used. Overall, both arbours and pergolas are great options for creating a pleasant outdoor space.
