If you've got an outdoor space, no matter how small, then well done; you're doing much better than most of us. City living or first house-buying often requires compromising on outdoor space, but that doesn't mean you can't have a garden that feels bigger (and much fancier) than it really is.

Click through our slideshow of ideas and products that will help take your backyard patch of grass to a wildly fancy space, which all your pals will be keen to BBQ in. And if none of these take your fancy you can always fill it with flowers.
