They are all over the place in
sunnier climes, and banana parasols are a feature of holiday destinations
around the world. In Europe, Asia and beyond, there’s an outdoor dining and
cafe culture which we have only recently begun to embrace here. Now we are all
becoming acclimatised to the idea of outdoor living and are introducing patio
and dining furniture along with greenhouses and conservatories. However,
with the introduction of outdoor furniture we need to consider how to protect
it and that’s where parasol covers can keep your parasol on tip top condition
We have always enjoyed long days during the summer but as temperatures rise we are all starting to realise the full potential of our gardens. Combine that with some beautiful sunny weather and it’s only natural that the next logical step has been to create useful outdoor rooms
Tables, chairs and even coffee tables and settees have become de rigueur in gardens and back yards the length and breadth of the UK. We’ve learned to embrace good weather and move outdoors whenever we can. Parasols, awnings and gazebos provide shade from the sun and protection from rain showers.
So committed are we as a nation to this new form of outdoor living and entertaining that we have adopted the barbecue with huge enthusiasm. Slowly but surely, the British are becoming more continental
And then, like the bad fairy at a princess’s christening, the Great British Weather does its worst!
This is when parasol covers and dedicated storage areas for soft furnishings really come into their own. Prolonged periods of bad weather could quickly spell disaster for expensive garden furniture. Parasol covers are such a simple and cheap solution to a perennial problem that it seems astonishing that so many people simply don’t bother.
Banana parasols are an expensive purchase but can be maintained in peak condition for years if cared for appropriately. A full length cover taking in all of your parasol and going right down to the floor to cover all the frame work really will keep your cantilever parasol like new. Then you can savor that first time you remove your cover in spring on a lovely warm day looking forward to the long summer days ahead (and knowing you wont need to contend with the creepy crawlies that normally hide in the parasol)
Why not have a look at our huge range of useful and practical covers, including many parasol covers? From boats to mobility scooters, we stock a huge range of practical and inexpensive methods of protecting your possessions from the vagaries of the British weather
