Across the rolling Sussex countryside, vineyards have become places where people gather to slow down, share good food and enjoy time together outdoors. Long lunches stretch into warm afternoons, conversations continue as the sun begins to set, and beautifully designed outdoor spaces become part of the experience.
It's this effortless way of enjoying life outdoors that inspired the Alexander Rose Bolney Collection.
Named after one of Sussex's best-known vineyards, the collection celebrates the simple pleasures of spending time outside. Whether it's your first coffee of the morning, a family lunch in the sunshine or an evening with friends beneath the stars, Bolney has been thoughtfully designed to help you make the most of every moment.
More than garden furniture
Some of the best moments spent outdoors aren't planned.
They're the conversations that continue long after lunch has finished. A quiet afternoon with a good book beneath the shade of a tree. Children playing on the lawn while friends gather around the table. Watching the garden change with the seasons from the comfort of your favourite chair.
Great garden furniture quietly becomes part of those memories.
The Bolney Collection was designed with exactly that in mind. Elegant without being elaborate, timeless rather than trend-led, it complements its surroundings instead of competing with them.
Inspired by the Sussex landscape
As English wine has flourished, Sussex vineyards have become destinations where people come together to enjoy exceptional hospitality in beautiful surroundings. Outdoor spaces play an important part in that experience, inviting visitors to linger a little longer and savour the moment.
The Bolney Collection reflects that same philosophy. With clean lines, beautifully balanced proportions and the natural warmth of sustainably sourced acacia hardwood, every piece feels equally at home in a contemporary garden, a traditional country setting or an elegant commercial terrace.
Its furniture designed to be enjoyed, season after season.
A collection for every season
Every outdoor space tells a different story.
For some, it's a peaceful retreat where the day begins with coffee in the morning sunshine. For others, it's the setting for family celebrations, summer barbecues and evenings spent entertaining friends.
The Bolney Collection has been created to embrace every one of those occasions.
Comfortable lounge sofas and armchairs create inviting spaces to relax, complemented by elegant coffee tables that bring everything within easy reach.
Beautifully crafted round and rectangular dining tables provide welcoming spaces for everything from informal breakfasts to memorable celebrations, while stylish bar tables and stools introduce a more relaxed, sociable atmosphere that's perfect for entertaining.
Whether you're looking for a charming companion set for two, a beautifully crafted garden bench overlooking the flower borders or an elegant swing seat beneath the shade of a favourite tree, every piece has been thoughtfully designed to encourage you to spend more time outdoors.
Throughout the collection, each piece shares the same understated elegance, allowing you to create a coordinated outdoor space that feels both welcoming and effortlessly refined.
The simple pleasure of slowing down
Sometimes it's the smallest moments that become the most treasured.
- A companion set positioned to catch the evening sun.
- Enjoy time with friends relaxing on a beautifully crafted lounge set
- A swing seat gently moving while children play
These are the places where conversations begin, books are finished, grandchildren are welcomed and memories are made.
The Bolney Collection celebrates those quieter moments just as beautifully as the larger occasions.
Beautiful at home. Equally impressive in hospitality settings.
The timeless design of the Bolney Collection extends far beyond the family garden.
Its elegant appearance and dependable craftsmanship make it equally suited to vineyard terraces, boutique hotels, restaurants, cafés, golf clubs and other hospitality environments where creating an inviting outdoor space is every bit as important as the service itself.
Whether guests are enjoying a leisurely lunch, an evening drink or simply taking in the view, Bolney provides furniture that feels comfortable, welcoming and perfectly in keeping with its surroundings.
Crafted from sustainably sourced acacia hardwood
Behind the relaxed elegance of the Bolney Collection lies exceptional craftsmanship.
Each piece is crafted from sustainably sourced acacia hardwood, selected for its attractive grain, rich natural character and excellent durability for outdoor living.
Acacia offers a wonderful balance of beauty and practicality. It’s warm tones complement both traditional and contemporary landscapes, while its natural resilience makes it an excellent choice for life outdoors.
With straightforward seasonal care, the timber develops even greater character over time, ageing gracefully while retaining the timeless appeal that makes hardwood furniture such a lasting investment.
Combined with quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design, every piece reflects the attention to detail that has become synonymous with Alexander Rose.
Designed to grow with your garden
Gardens evolve over the years, and the furniture we choose often evolves with them.
One of the strengths of the Bolney Collection is its versatility. Whether you're furnishing a small patio with a companion set, adding a relaxing swing seat beneath a favourite tree, introducing a classic garden bench or creating a generous outdoor dining space for entertaining, each piece works beautifully on its own while complementing the rest of the collection.
As your outdoor space grows and changes, Bolney allows you to add new pieces with confidence, creating a garden that feels naturally curated rather than carefully matched.
Watch the Bolney Collection come to life
We were delighted to film the Bolney Collection in the beautiful surroundings of Bolney Wine Estate 3 years ago.
Watching the furniture set against the backdrop of one of Sussex's most celebrated vineyards perfectly captures the inspiration behind the collection and the relaxed style of outdoor living it represents.
We hope the video inspires you to imagine how these beautifully crafted pieces could transform your own garden, terrace or hospitality space.
Outdoor living, beautifully considered
The finest garden furniture does more than fill a space. It creates places where people gather, where conversations unfold, where families celebrate and where life's quieter moments can be enjoyed in comfort.
Inspired by the Sussex countryside and crafted from beautifully sustainable acacia hardwood, the Alexander Rose Bolney Collection has been designed for exactly those occasions.
The best gardens aren't remembered for the furniture they contain, they're remembered for the moments shared there.
