Picnic Accessories & Outdoor Dining

Picnic Blankets, Cool Bags, Flasks and Glassware

The range includes traditional checked picnic blankets in wool and acrylic blends, waterproof-backed blankets that handle damp grass, insulated cool bags in matching wicker-effect fabric, vacuum flasks for tea and coffee, melamine plate sets that survive being dropped, and stainless steel cutlery in fitted rolls. Most coordinate with our fitted hampers and unfilled baskets so you can build a complete kit over time.

Proper kit genuinely pays off. A waterproof-backed blanket keeps you dry on dewy grass, a vacuum flask keeps tea hot for hours, a good cool bag holds wine and salads at temperature, and melamine plates do not break when dropped. Each piece solves a small but real problem.

If you are topping up an existing hamper, individual replacements like chopping boards, cool bags and cutlery sets handle wear over the years. If you are starting from scratch, a four-person hamper plus accessories added as needed tends to work better than buying everything at once.

Many of these pieces work beyond the picnic too, from cool bags for the weekly shop to blankets as throws and flasks for hiking. Pair picnic accessories with our fitted picnic hampers for the full traditional setup, or our wine and champagne baskets for occasions focused on the bottle.
