Spanning 22 miles between the towns of Torquay and Brixham, the English Riviera in South Devon takes in secluded coves and sandy beaches, fishing villages with cobbled streets, and dramatic red sandstone cliffs and off-shore stacks. The mild climate here makes for some terrific gardens, too.
Neptune: garden furniture built to last a lifetime
26.06.2023 - 14:01 / theenglishgarden.co.uk
Neptune are purveyors of luxury furniture and accessories for home and garden, as well as a leading name in interior and kitchen design. What’s lesser known is that they started out as a garden retailer, with co-founders John Sims-Hilditch and Giles Redman crafting a hammock from scratch around a dining table.
That was back in 1996, and while the company has since grown to include over 35 stores throughout the UK and Europe, as well as an extensive e-commerce site, their commitment to quality materials and craftsmanship has remained unwavering. Neptune’s garden collection has expanded from a single hammock to include beautiful dining sets, elegant conversational furniture, sunloungers, benches, and more.
Most recently, they joined creative forces with Christopher Farr Cloth and launched a capsule collection for the garden spanning parasols and outdoor cushions. The collaboration combines Christopher Farr’s revolutionary outdoor performance fabric with Neptune’s deep-rooted design expertise. The two prints, Carnival Celeste and Cremaillere Saggio, depict vivacious patterns in bright colourways – bringing a little of the Italian riviera to the English garden.
Neptune are on a mission to make furniture that will last for 100 years or more. They’re firm believers in using the right material for the right purpose – especially when it comes to garden designs, which endure their fair share of turbulent weather. Their approach values form and function in equal measure, so materials are selected for their beauty as well as their performance. Each design reflects the combination of traditional British craftsmanship and modern innovation that makes Neptune unique.

The Big Plastic Count
Once the results are in, the organisations involved will have a better picture of the scale of the problem we face here in the UK. They also will have better facts to take to government (both local and national) and the organisations who create or use the plastic — such as food companies — to lobby for alternative packaging solutions.Like with any project of this kind I'm sure the results will lead to further questions and the potential need to drill down further in the data. Whilst there are 19 categories of plastic in the survey, many of them are quite broad and only give an idea of numbers not volume. For instance one of my pieces of plastic this morning is the small wrapper which goes around a milk bottle. This sits along
