Creating a cosy and stylish atmosphere will enable you to make the most of your garden patio all year round. How can you do this? The key lies in creating ambience and warmth with stylish outdoor heating. If you’re looking for some inspiration, make sure to check out the following outdoor heating ideas:
Overhead heating
Overhead heating is one of the best outdoor heating ideas for creating a cosy atmosphere. It’s also a practical idea for small patios that lack the space to accommodate standalone heaters. The Kettler Copper Pendant Hanging Heater provides plenty of warmth without imposing on your outdoor space. Just clip the hook and chain mechanism onto any solid structure such as a pergola, allowing for plenty of freedom of placement. Made using an authentic copper design, this hanging heater is a subtle but stylish addition to your garden patio, and one of our favourite outdoor heating ideas.
Lantern Heaters
We couldn’t talk about our top 5 outdoor heating ideas without mentioning lantern heaters. Not only do lantern heaters look great, they’re also a practical solution for keeping your patio warm and making it usable all year round. You can find a diverse range of lantern heaters to suit your individual requirements. For larger patio areas, the 80cm Kettler Universal Electric Lantern Heater features a sleek, contemporary design and is easily operated using a touch screen switch. For a more rustic look, the Kettler Copper Patio Lantern, features a copper tinge design in a cylindrical shape, and is easy to move around using a stylised carry ring.
Fire Pits
There’s nothing more cosy than gathering around a roaring fire pit in the evening and that’s why it’s one of the best outdoor heating ideas. The Kettler Universal Square Fire Pit is not only practical for providing warmth, it also looks great. Compact and portable, this outdoor fire pit boasts a campfire feel in your outdoor space. The design features gorgeous lava rocks that are surrounded by a subtle glass guard to prevent the wind from putting the fire out, whilst keeping everyone safe.
Fire Pit Tables
Fire pit tables are another one of our favourite outdoor heating ideas if you’re looking to combine warmth with al fresco dining. Fire pit dining table sets make a sophisticated statement in your patio area, featuring an integrated fire pit with plenty of comfortable seating for dining and socialising in style. The Hartman Apollo Square Fire Pit Dining Set for example features a Tuscan ceramic glass table top, with integrated fire pit and a contemporary range of sofa seating and stools with Weatherready® cushions.
Throws
No cosy patio area is complete without plenty of fluffy throws and soft furnishings to complement the outdoor heating ideas we’ve suggested. The Brecon Throw that’s made using the softest cotton, features a beautiful texture and is available in cappuccino, vanilla, or dark ochre to suit any outdoor living area. Make sure you’ve got plenty of cushions to complete the look. Our decorative range of outdoor cushions are made using season-proof covers that are easily removable for cleaning, making them just as practical as they are stylish.
