Parasols & Bases

Whether you are running a hotel, cafe or pub, or just want to maximise the benefits of your home, parasols are a must. What an attractive and high-quality garden parasol will offer is a haven from spring and summer showers or UV sun rays. This will ensure that a hospitality business can provide pleasant and relaxed outdoor dining and drinking areas. It will also enable homeowners to make the absolute most of their gardens during summer.

It is not just about such practical considerations though. A parasol umbrella also lends any outdoor space a feeling of sophistication and class. Our range of parasols includes options to suit the tastes and preferences of all customers.

The types of garden parasol

The two primary kinds of parasol on the market are freestanding (or centre pole) parasols and cantilever (or side arm) parasols. We stock both types, and which one will be better for you will depend on how you plan to use it and the size of your space.

Freestanding parasols

A freestanding parasol is a type of garden umbrella that offers flexibility and mobility. It is fixed into the parasol base with a pole made of metal, granite or concrete. It is generally smaller than a cantilever parasol, which means it can be placed in both large and compact spaces. This makes it a popular choice for either home or commercial use. We stock freestanding parasols from top-of-the-line brand names like Supremo, Hartman and Bramblecrest.

Cantilever parasols

Cantilever models feature an offset aluminium parasol base rather than a centre pole. This means you can sit right underneath them for unobstructed shade. They also allow you to adjust the height and angle of the parasol umbrella, so it protects you even when the sun moves. Among the brands of cantilever parasol you will find are the Aegean Square range (in different colours), the Seychelles (with round or square umbrella) and the Supremo Monaco and Provence ranges.

Individual parts

In addition to stocking complete parasols, we also offer you the chance to buy the garden umbrella and base separately. Examples include our Supremo Riviera range of umbrellas and our Hartman freestanding base or water filled cantilever base.
