Spring Into the Outdoors: Your Ultimate Kit for Garden Days & Highland Getaways

Apr 22, 2025

The sun’s peeking out, the days are longer, and the urge to get outside is real. Whether you’re planning a chilled evening in the garden or gearing up for an off-grid Highland escape, it’s time to dust off the cobwebs and get your outdoor kit sorted. And don’t worry—we’ve got everything you need to do it in serious style (and comfort). 

 

Start with the Fire Pit 

There’s something magical about gathering around a fire. Our favourite way to kick off an evening? Light the fire pit, grab a drink, and watch the glow take over. It’s ideal for toasting marshmallows, warming your hands, or just adding that perfect flicker of atmosphere to your evening under the stars. 

 

Wrap Up in a Good Blanket 

Even when the sun’s out, those spring and summer nights can bring a chill. That’s where a classic, cosy blanket comes in. Perfect for draping over your shoulders, layering over a picnic, or sprawling out on the lawn with a book and a brew. It’s the one piece that makes everything feel just a little more luxurious. 

 

Don’t Forget the Mug 

The humble enamel mug is a small hero. We love the Lake and Duck Enamel Mug by Gents Hardware—it’s built for the wild and makes your morning tea or coffee taste even better. Take it camping, into the garden, or on a road trip… it's the ultimate outdoorsy companion. 

 

Meet Your Picnic Game-Changer: The PacMat 

Say goodbye to soggy blankets and shifting picnic setups. The PacMat is lightweight, waterproof, and comes in loads of great designs—basically, it’s everything you want in a picnic mat. Add a few ground pegs, and it’ll stay put no matter how enthusiastic your guests (or the breeze) get. 

 

Ready for Road Trips, Picnics, or Backyard Bliss 

Whether you’re going full adventure mode or just upgrading your garden hangouts, our outdoor essentials are built for memory-making. From firelight to flat whites in the wild, we’re here to help you embrace the season properly.
