I highly recommend string lights.they create magnificent mood and really life your garden at nighttime. Great for entertainment!

Agree, string lights (or as I call them fairy lights) are perfect for that warm atmosphere feeling. They are very affordable, and very easy to install.

Step lights are great as they do a double job: they provide a warm feeling plus they are a must for safety.

Would agree that string / festoon lights are the way to go. Instant party!

Hey guys what about SOLAR lights? They are the ultimate in cost effectiveness and ease of installation!

Most important thing is to ensure your garden has layers of lights, eg string lights as well as bollards.

I adore up lights, particularly next to tall trees. Gives a really dramatic effect, which is why all great hotels and resorts use them.

Speaking about fairly light, note that you can get solar powered ones these days, which makes them even simpler to use.

I like using coach lights in pairs. Really gives a beautiful atmosphere.

Path lights are the way to go, whether you use spike light, bollard lights, up lights, step lights, whatever. Just make sure they are not too bright or you will get a stadium effect.

My personal favourite is fairy lights. You can't go past them for mood lighting.

The best type of lighting I think is using flood light projected back at your house walls. Looks absolutely stunning.

When installing garden lights, you can either use halogen lights or LED lights.
