Outdoor Lighting That Extends the Evening

Outdoor lighting keeps a garden alive after sunset. It turns a patio into an evening retreat, lights a path safely to the door, and stretches long summer evenings well past dusk with a warm, welcoming glow.

Our collection spans wall lights, festoon and string lights, bollards, spotlights and solar and low voltage garden fittings in a range of finishes and brightness levels, all with a luxury feel without the heavy price tag. Pair warm festoon strings with an outdoor lounge to set the scene for slow evenings outside.

Choosing the Right Outdoor Lighting for Your Space

Good outdoor lighting balances function and mood. Ambient patio and festoon lighting sits around 100 to 300 lumens per fitting, while wall lights near a door suit 300 to 700 lumens, with a warm white around 2700K to 3000K. Check the IP rating too, with IP44 for sheltered areas like a covered patio and IP65 for open, exposed positions and direct rain. Aim for layers rather than one bright source, spacing path lights around 2m to 3m apart for even coverage.

• Solar lights for wire free path and garden lighting
• Low voltage plug in systems for adjustable garden lighting
• Hardwired wall lights and bollards for permanent lighting
• Festoon and string lights for decorative ambience

Styles to Suit Your Space

Sleek black or matte fittings feel modern, lantern and coach styles suit traditional facades, and in ground fittings highlight planting. Pair yours with an outdoor dining set, add an awning for shade, and browse more outdoor furniture to complete the space.

How far apart should path lights go?

Space path lights around 2m to 3m apart for even coverage, staggering them gently along a path for a more natural look.
