Ovalhouse Garden Pod Bar Outdoor Space for Entertaining Year Round
Garden Parties, Redefined
Step Inside the Ovalhouse Garden Pod Bar
There’s something timeless about gathering with friends and family in the garden – laughter shared over drinks, golden hour conversations, the gentle clink of glasses as day turns to dusk. But modern outdoor living deserves more than a few fold-out chairs and a chilly dash back to the house for top-ups. The Ovalhouse Garden Pod Bar by Ornate Garden offers a new way to host – stylish, sociable, and completely weatherproof.
This is not just a bar in the garden. It’s a beautifully designed, all-season garden room created specifically for entertaining. A space that blends architectural interest with function, turning any outdoor area into a destination.
An Architectural Focal Point for Your Garden
With its unique curved form and contemporary timber design, the Ovalhouse Garden Pod Bar makes a bold and elegant statement. It’s not just a building you place in the garden – it becomes part of your landscape, a sculptural feature that adds character and draws people in.
Whether set against manicured lawns, surrounded by planting, or positioned to catch the last of the evening sun, the Ovalhouse feels effortlessly at home in a range of garden styles. Yet it’s anything but ordinary.
Designed for Sociable Living, All Year Round
One of the Ovalhouse’s most appealing features is its year-round usability. The British weather is nothing if not unpredictable – but with this pod, plans don’t have to change. Whether it’s a summer evening or a crisp spring afternoon, it provides shelter, warmth, and comfort for every season.
The lockable French door entrance makes coming and going easy and secure, while three generous slide-up windows allow for seamless interaction between guests inside and out. It’s a space that adapts to the atmosphere – lively and open when entertaining, cocooned and cosy when you want to retreat.
A Garden Party That Doesn’t Rely on the Forecast
When you’re hosting outdoors, having a reliable shelter is more than a convenience – it’s a game changer. The Ovalhouse Garden Pod Bar becomes the natural gathering point during garden parties, offering a protected space to relax, refill glasses, or escape a sudden shower.
It takes the pressure off the house, too. Rather than everyone crowding in the kitchen or dashing in and out with trays, you can keep the entire experience outdoors. It’s a refreshing change – one that makes entertaining feel easier, more spacious, and more relaxed.
Your Own Fully Equipped Outdoor Bar
This isn’t just a place to sit – it’s a complete social hub. The Ovalhouse includes a fully fitted bar area, with bar optics, a beer fridge/bottle cooler, so everything you need to host is close at hand. No more trekking back indoors for ice or mixers – it's all here, ready to serve.
The pod seats up to fourteen guests in comfort, with three separate tabletops ideal for drinks, nibbles, or even an indulgent grazing board. It encourages laid-back hosting – where everyone feels welcome and the pace of the evening is set by the rhythm of the conversation, not the logistics.
Effortless Ambience, Day or Night
Creating the right mood is at the heart of great entertaining, and the Ovalhouse helps you do it with ease. Remote-controlled ambient LED lighting casts a soft, welcoming glow as evening falls, while the integrated Bluetooth sound bar lets you set the soundtrack with a tap.
There’s a temperature control thermostat to keep things just right, and power points – including USB charging ports – so phones stay charged and playlists never pause. Whether it’s cocktails and jazz at sunset or a crisp evening with a warm whisky, the Ovalhouse adapts to your mood.
And with 360° panoramic views, the garden is always part of the experience. You’re not cut off from nature – you’re immersed in it, protected but still surrounded by the season.
More Than a Bar – A Space That Works Around You
While it was designed for entertaining, the Ovalhouse Garden Pod Bar is far from one-dimensional. It’s also a retreat. A garden office. A space to read, to work, to relax with music or coffee. It becomes part of your everyday, not just your weekends.
From morning coffee with a view to evening drinks with friends, it’s a place to pause and enjoy life – even when the weather has other ideas.
