The best garden bean bags to create a relaxing outdoor sanctuary (1)

Perfect for fuss-free additional seating, outdoor bean bags are designed for relaxation and comfort in garden or patio settings.

Designed to blend style, comfort and durability – and typically made from durable and weather-resistant materials to withstand exposure to sunlight, rain and other elements – it's the ideal accessory if you want to create a casual seating area to unwind in the sunshine. Just add an outdoor rug and garden lantern for a cosy outdoor living room feel.

Depending on what size you're after, you can buy a large outdoor bean bag to seat more than one person (or just to have the extra space), or you can choose a design which offers a practical back rest for additional support.

Another plus is that garden bean bags are lightweight and easy to move around, allowing you to place them in different areas of your garden as desired. In terms of comfort, bean bags are filled with small polystyrene beads that conform to the shape of the body, providing a supportive seating experience. The beads inside help to distribute weight evenly, allowing for a cosy seating position.

Importantly, bean bags are great space-savers, which isn ideal for tiny gardens. You can easily store them in a shed or bring them indoors after use. Looking for some inspiration? Browse our favourite designs below...
