Tesco is selling a chic wicker bistro set for just £99.99 in the summer sale, but it’s going fast
Plus, more affordable (and stylish) garden furniture sets to grab now
Anyone with even a square foot of outdoor space is no doubt making the most of it this summer – it's only July and we've already had two heatwaves! But transforming your balcony or patio into a relaxing idyll can be pricey – once you’ve splashed out on garden furniture, a BBQ, and a parasol to create some shade, the cost soon adds up.
However, we’ve found the stylish and affordable solution at Tesco – the supermarket is selling some seriously chic furniture sets in its summer sale. Our top pick is the grey wicker table and chair bistro set, which is now under £100, but we’ve found sets to suit every outdoor space below.
They're all available on Tesco Marketplace, which means you can even collect Clubcard points with your purchase to help you save on everything from meals out to your weekly shop. Delivery is simple too, as each item is sent directly from the seller via post or a courier, and can be tracked in the Tesco app.
There are the sets to add to basket before they sell out.

Charles Bentley Zanzibar Tea for Two Bistro Set Chairs and Table
If you’re short on space, or have a balcony rather than a garden, this compact chair and table set-up is the perfect solution. The chairs are made from a sleek grey wicker, and pair beautifully with the accompanying coffee slash cocktail table.
We’d style the set with some colourful garden planters and a glass of cold white wine. It’s down to £99.99 from £149 in the summer sale, so you’ll have change for a nice bottle.
Garden Vida Hampton 4 Seater Corner Rattan Set Sofa and Coffee Table
This modular Garden Vita sofa and coffee table set is another great affordable option for upgrading your outdoor space. You can either use the sofa and stool separately or combine them to create a corner sofa set-up, along with a table for drinks and picky bits.
The sofa features a high-quality rattan base and removable cushions. Note, self-assembly is required, but the set comes with easy-to-follow instructions.
Charles Bentley Steel Grill Gazebo Outdoor Tent Shelter
What we wouldn’t give for a bit of shade when the temperatures heat up. For larger spaces, this gazebo will create a cool spot on boiling hot days and even has shelves for drinks and nibbles. You’ll be glad to know it’s water resistant, too, in case the weather takes a sudden turn. Did we mention it’s under £100?
Charles Bentley Hanging Egg Shaped Rattan Swing Chair
This hanging egg chair is the ultimate chill-out spot. Just imagine relaxing in this on a balmy summer’s evening, reading your book or listening to music – pure bliss.
It’s shower-proof, which is convenient for the odd rainy day, but be sure to store it away in a shed or garage, or cover it during the colder winter months, to make sure it lasts summer after summer.
Charles Bentley American Large Portable Grill
Once you’ve got your seating sorted, a great grill is a must to complete the space. This large charcoal BBQ is perfect for entertaining, with a large cooking area and a warming rack that will keep your sausages toasty until you’re ready to serve.
Chefs will be pleased to know there’s also a built-in thermometer and the charcoal tray height is adjustable, to help you achieve the perfect level of charring. It’s on wheels, so it’s easier to move around the garden, if needed, and there’s even a bottle opener on the front leg, to keep the chef hydrated...
