Arbours and Arches

About

Arbours and Arches [desc] Arbours and arches adorned with climbing flowers or vines are attractive and evocative garden features well worth your consideration. [more] A seated arbour makes a wonderfully secluded spot in which to sit and enjoy a glass of wine or read a book, while an arch is a tasteful piece of garden furniture which draws the eye and, with the right plantings, fills the senses too. Whether you’re interested in garden structures which double as outdoor furniture, or a romantic arch through which to wander, here at Waltons, we’re sure to stock just the thing you’re looking for. We even have a full range of children’s furniture for the garden which young ones will love to use for play or al fresco mealtimes. [/desc] What is an arbour? Arbours and arches are somewhat interchangeable terms, but an arbour is a piece of garden furniture which, as well as featuring an archway, often has seating too. It’s perfect for training climbing plants over to create a shady spot in which to sit and enjoy your garden. An arbour is a great place for adults to relax, but also works well as an item of children’s garden furniture, providing a semi-enclosed space in which to play or read. Choose from a basic, open structure or opt for something much more substantial with a roof to protect you from summer showers. What is a pergola? A pergola has uprights supporting an open roof comprised of a lattice or framework. It’s more substantial than an arbour – a bigger garden construction rather than an item of garden furniture, it’s perfect for training climbing plants over. Vines are a particularly good choice for pergola plantings, helping to create a shaded space which is perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. As an architectural feature, a pergola makes an excellent focal point for your garden. { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [ { "@type": "Question", "name": "What is an arbour?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Arbour
