A built-in barbecue is a clear way of presenting the garden as an outdoor entertaining space, and can be as sophisticated as your budget dictates. From a simple brick-built structure for under £30, to an all-singing, all-dancing gas-fired component in a full-scale outdoor kitchen, costing £5,000 upwards.
Despite our generally unpredictable summers, the outdoor kitchen is still the latest fad among the property buyers.
A cheaper alternative however, is an outdoor pizza oven which starts from around £500, though these features seem to cut little ice in the country. Try bbqisland.net, gardengiftshop.co.uk or jamieoliver.com for ideas.
