Personally I like a seating area to feel snug and cosy so you feel a bit cocooned especially at night. Lighting plays a big part too, and can be as simple as candles or fairy lights strung through your hedge, or even a chandelier suspended overhead.
Heres my pick of some lovely seating areas for socialising with friends or kicking back with a book or a mag. Roll on summer!
