There is a certain amount of our parents in our personality, and a lot in the way we look, but their influence is just as far reaching when it comes to the things we enjoy and how we raise our own families. With Father’s Day coming up on June 19th, we take some time to reflect on how much our Dads have done for us in life.

Many of the things we enjoy in life are influenced by our parents, family and those around us when we were growing up. This could be a fascination with films or music, an active interest in sports and competition or something as simple as reading a book in the garden and enjoying the quiet, calming effect of the outside world.

So, when you’re looking for that something special for Father’s Day this year, why not give a gift that will keep on giving, for many years to come? Garden ornaments, stone seating and water features are all part of what makes a nice garden great, and makes for a wonderful addition to his happy place, too.

While tending allotments and cultivating a garden isn’t as ingrained into the everyday lives of our generation, our parents were very much involved in growing their own vegetables and this has stuck with them over the years, culminating in a deeper connection with the great outdoors, and gardening in general.

With summer on the approach, why not do something extra special for your first hero in life? Whether your Dad is a keen gardener, a fan of rugby, cricket or snooker, or simply prefers to relax and enjoy life from the comfort of his favourite arm chair, there is always an easy way to bring a smile to his face.

Give your Dad the gift of a helping hand with his garden or allotment. A little hard graft and bonding time on a new gardening project is a gift that you can’t put a price on. Giving your dad something to look out of the window and smile about is something that money can’t buy.

Stone seating will give him somewhere to sit and collect his thoughts, catch up on his favourite novel or have a well-deserved break from tending the veggies. A stone water feature is a gift that will bring valuable movement and life into his garden respite. Garden ornaments and furniture are stylish, aesthetically pleasing and practical – what more could you ask for?
