The seat is shaped for comfort too, so you can enjoy a lazy afternoon in it.The arbour is created entirely from FSC softwood, so the sustainable aspect is there too. All in all, along with a solid 10-year manufacturer’s guarantee, this is an ideal garden arbour.The Britannia Arbour is supplied painted in Ronseal Willow & Elderflower shades giving it a stylish appearance that will also blend easily into the backdrop of the garden.
