Outdoor Tablecloth with Parasol Hole — Olive Drift

When the sun finally decides to show up in the UK, there's no better place to be than your own garden — drink in hand, BBQ sizzling, and a table dressed to impress. But what’s the one thing that can ruin your perfectly set garden table? The weather, of course. That’s where waterproof outdoor tablecloths come in.

At The Garden Tablecloth Co., our tablecloths are made with practicality and prettiness in mind. They’re not only wipe-clean and waterproof but also feature central parasol holes, making them perfect for sunny (and not-so-sunny) days in the garden.

Whether you're hosting a birthday brunch, laying out a buffet, or just enjoying a quiet cup of tea, a waterproof tablecloth means:

No soggy fabric
No stain panic
No last-minute dashes to bring everything inside

From floral cottage prints to Mediterranean lemon patterns, our collection is designed to make outdoor dining easier, prettier, and more enjoyable — whatever the weather throws your way.

Styling tip:

Pair your waterproof tablecloth with matching napkin rings, fresh flowers, and pastel jugs for that “hosted without trying too hard” look. Bonus points if you’re doing it all under a parasol!
