As much as we might be looking to make the most of the hot weather this week, there are times that call for a bit of shade. With the weather set to hit 30 degrees Celsius in Liverpool this week you’ll want to make sure you’re well prepared for the high temperatures.
It’s especially important to seek shade during when the sun is at its highest, though you might still want to utilise your outdoor space during the height of the day. A garden parasol can make all the difference in allowing you to spend time outdoors even while the sun is blazing.
Whether you’re looking to enjoy some quiet reading or share an outdoor meal with family and friends, we’ve got you covered (literally).

The parasol is seen online for £50.36 making it a much more affordable option that other B&Q parasols that retail at hundreds of pounds.
The parasol has a crank handle and a tilt mechanism meaning it can be easily adjusted to cater to your outdoor set up.
One satisfied customer described the product as a “sturdy, good-sized parasol”.
They added that it was a great size for the garden and came “exactly as described”.
The parasol has a height of 2.2 metres and a diameter of 2.5 metres.
B&Q suggests using a base weight of at least 12 kilograms to weigh down the parasol. The weights are not included.
Homeware line Habitat has also impressed shoppers recently with its overhanging garden parasol.
The cream coloured umbrella is currently on sale for £75 online, reduced from £100.
The extendable Habitat parasol has a crank and pulley system, mean it can be taken down when not in use and extended to go over any table or seating area without needing to be placed in the middle.
It has a height of 250cm and a diameter of 250cm.
