Bring the magic of the seaside to your own back garden with the Shire Sandpit with Seats. Perfect for sparking creativity and encouraging outdoor play, this classic garden favourite will keep little ones entertained for hours — whether they’re building sandcastles, digging for ‘treasure’, or simply enjoying the feel of sand between their fingers.
Expertly crafted in the UK from high-grade, FSC-approved timber, the sandpit is designed to be durable while fitting neatly into smaller garden spaces. A clever foldable lid keeps the sand clean and safe from animals and debris when not in use, and when opened, it transforms into two handy bench seats — ideal for both kids and supervising adults.
Please note that a floor is not included; for best results, we recommend placing weed control fabric underneath. The lid is not waterproof in order to meet safety standards, and sand and toys are not included — allowing you to choose exactly what you need for the perfect play experience.
