Windy back garden

4 years ago

I have a very nice large back garden and patio area but cant enjoy it as much as I would like because it is very windy. I have trees an scrubs on the perimeter but the site is sloping in a dip so there is always a breeze even on hot days. Any advice on creating a sheltered area to sit ?

Back garden that needs some love!

A picture would be nice to view. I have a forgotten area in my yard as well. It became so overgrown with weeds that last year that after pulling out everything, we used a bunch of non-matching pavers we had left over from some jobs, and I purchased others, to create a sitting area. The next door neighbor's ground ivy has made a home in that corner of my yard, so we made trellises for it to climb on, LOL. We also built a paver fire pit and placed some benches on the patio, and around it. You don't need to use cushions all the time. It turned out to be an area my husband loves to sit in now. Around this now bricked-in corner we use annuals in various pots to add color. It still needs work, but everything around here is a "work in progress", LOL.

What are we looking at to the right of the photo that's white? Get some annuals in the flower beds. Check the amount of sun you have and plant accordingly. You can mix vegetables and flowers. From your photo, and in order, I would get a canvas gazebo both to give you privacy from the neighbors and to block your view of their houses and the kids stuff. Mine had the canvas you could zip up AND screens. We had our table and chairs in there. It was really lovely and lasted many years. There are ways to stabilize them on the blacktop without drilling into it. Looks like you could use a new shed, I'm not sure the one you have is being used

Hi, We live on the North West Coast of Ireland and are high up so it can be very wet and windy. I'm looking for recommendations for garden table and chairs which can withstand Irish weather. I know we would need to take in cushions but we don't have a shed/garage as of yet so I'd rather have furniture which can stay out all year. TIA
