Every great backyard has a stage.
For the big plays. 🏈
The backyard feasts. 🍔🔥
The little moments nobody planned for. ✨
The lawn sets the scene for all of it.
Navimow X4 keeps the stage ready for whatever comes next.
Happy International Lawn Day!

The rain dance worked! 🌧️

We were all treated to a 'little bit' of rain over the weekend, and you can already see some green starting to creep back into the grass. Perfect timing for a new mower delivery!

This Mountfield 1738H went off to its new home last week. Just in time for the grass to start growing again! 🌱

Happy mowing! 👌

Although there isn’t much grass to cut at the moment, that doesn’t mean you can’t have a look!

Our apprentice has been out with the camera today taking some photos of the mowers we have lined up and waiting for their new homes.

There are plenty to choose from, all keen and ready to get cutting your lawn. And with the little teaser of rain we’ve had over the last few days, hopefully the grass will soon start growing again!

Here’s a look at just some of the machines we have ready to go. Pop in and have a browse - you might just find your new mower.
