Garden Parasols have always been a popular item in the UK but quite often they have to be bought as part of a patio set.
However, the free-standing Cantilever Parasol is growing in popularity and fast in 2020…
These adjustable free standing garden umbrellas ensure that being in the shade is a real possibility when the sun is blazing down.
We all know the risks of high exposure to the sun on our skin.
You can place them anywhere in the garden, take them on holiday or camping with you and also use them beside the pool.

This Jarder Parasol set is my preferred choice when it comes to creating your own shaded area whether its in your garden or another location.
It is Jarder’s most expensive model but has some great features that similar types of garden parasol don’t.
For me, one of the best features is that once you’ve bought this item there is nothing else to buy (unlike other brands).
This makes things much easier and to be honest its a good feeling knowing that there are no hidden costs after buying it.

This Cantilever Parasol set from TecTake is great value for money.
If you’re in a rush and on a strict budget, we recommend this one.
Also, while it’s not built for high winds we took one of our garden planters and placed it on the base.
This weighed it down perfectly for medium winds!
