Looking for quality garden furniture

We bought a house in the Manchester suburbs last year, proper dream place we'd been wanting for ages. Got our own little garden with a lawn, lounge area, and a spot for the barbecue. There's a decent-sized terrace as well where you can sit outside and stay dry when the rain starts, which happens often enough round here. Previous owners even left their garden furniture behind, which seemed brilliant at first. Thing is, it's absolutely rubbish quality, to be honest. Just over six months and it's already falling apart, looks terrible, and I'm genuinely nervous sitting on that outdoor sofa now in case it collapses. Need to get something better sorted for the garden. Where's good to look for furniture in the UK? And what material should I even go for so it'll actually last more than one season?

Yeah, and you don't want to be dragging furniture in and out every time it looks like rain. That gets old fast when you're doing it twice a week. Good quality stuff you can just leave outside year-round without thinking about it. Cushions matter too, the waterproof ones dry quickly instead of staying damp and gross. Have a look at garden sets including sofas, chairs and patio tables here: https://rengard.co.uk/product-category/outdoor-sofa-sets/ . They've got weather-resistant pieces that'll handle Manchester's climate without falling apart or going mouldy. Most sets come with proper outdoor cushions that shed water instead of soaking it up, so you're not constantly hauling them inside when clouds roll in.
