Seeing as the sun could be here for a little longer, we’re spending as much time in our garden, patio or balcony for as long as possible – though when the sun sets, sitting outside isn’t as appealing.

Thankfully shoppers are going wild for a set of solar-powered string lights that really brighten up the place (literally!).

Priced at £15, the Scalloped 10 LED Indoor Outdoor Solar String Lights have customers rushing online and in store in the hope you get their hands on a set. With an impressive score of 4.5 out of 5, they’ve been hailed a ‘pretty string of lights’, ‘stunning’, and one person went as far as calling them the ‘best on the market’.

Illuminate your space with the charming Scalloped 10 LED Solar String Lights. Featuring a delicate white scalloped design, these lights house 10 warm white LEDs that offer both constant and flashing settings.

With a total cable length of 5.7 metres and a lit length of 3.88 metres, these solar-powered lights are both practical and stylish, making them an ideal addition to your outdoor décor, don’t you think?

Someone called ‘Kingston Lad’ a few months back called the solar string lights the ‘best on the market’, and added: ‘Excellent lights, look great on our summer house. Bought two sets.’

Another five-star reviewer also said how they are ‘absolutely stunning’, before mentioning: ‘Bought these as a gift for our friends then decided to buy them for myself. They are really pretty and look stunning. The best solar lights I have seen so pleased with them.’

‘Lovely garden lights’ said Garden Light Fan, who then went on to say: ‘Lovely asset to the garden. More expensive than I would normally pay but a cut above the rest.’

Diana said she would ‘buy these again’ and added to her five-star review: ‘Really lovely lights that arrived very quickly. Even better that they were in the sale.’

Better yet, Charlene said the ‘gorgeous lights’ were ‘great quality’ and went on to say: ‘so pretty and perfect for my small patio area.’

Priced at £15, we don’t think these will be in stock for long, especially with a few more bank holidays pending, and plenty of catching up with friends and family into the night are on the cards.
