Lidl’s £15 sun sail is everything you need to create a shady oasis in your garden – and it’s on sale right now
Escape the sun (and rain) with this stylish, contemporary design


A carefully crafted shaded area can turn your garden into an oasis of relaxation and comfort during the hotter summer days, and Lidl is offering everything you need to do this for just £14.99.
The best garden canopy ideas are designed to shelter you from both rain and excess sun, and we all know British summers often offer both on the same day! The Livarno Home Rectangular Sun Shade Sail has landed in the Lidl middle aisle today and is designed to provide practical sun protection for gardens, balconies and patios.
With two stylish colours available, the sun sail will make a chic addition to your small patio ideas. But with stock limited, as always, you will have to act fast if you want to get your hands on one.
The Livarno Home Rectangular Sun Shade Sail comes with a three-year warranty and is made from robust, weather-resistant HDPE fabric, showing that despite its budget price tag, the brand has not skimped on quality. The material is also UV resistant, with Lidl stating that 85% of UV rays are blocked, so you can relax without fear of sunburn.
Also included in the £14.99 price is tensioning rope and clips so you can attach your sail securely, and not have to worry about it sagging. A canopy sail can be attached to hooks on your fencing, trees, or you can even add free-standing poles to add your sail to a specific or desired spot.
The Livarno Home Rectangular Sun Shade Sail is available in stylish beige or grey. At L300 x W200cm, it's large enough to comfortably fit your garden furniture underneath.
The sail is also available in a triangular shape, which is best suited to small gardens. When considering installing a garden sail, it’s important to note that the sleek, contemporary design of garden sails makes them best suited for modern gardens. If you have a more rustic garden aesthetic, looking at pergola ideas or a garden umbrella may be better suited to your style.
