Seating or dining are in small back garden? Post Reply

Re thinking our small garden space. We currently have a table and chairs on the patio but I am thinking a seating are would be more useful? Wondering if anyone has done similar and if you miss your table and chairs? Don't want to invest in seating if we then wish we had a table?

If you have enough space you could have both. You can have comfy garden furniture with cushions and a matching dining table. If that takes up too much space you just have to decide whether eating outside or lounging outside is more important. If eating is important you could try getting some giant outdoor bean bags to give you a lounging around option.

We have a corner sofa that has a table at dining height. The table and sofa together fit as a square and it had 2 seating stools that fit under the table. It’s very comfortable as a sofa and work to eat at, so good for both.
