The SunVilla Pembrooke 27kg Granite Umbrella Base — In Stock & Shipping Across the UK
If you've ever watched your garden umbrella topple in a gust of wind, you already know the problem. Most umbrella bases simply aren't heavy enough for unpredictable British weather. The SunVilla Pembrooke solves that with 27kg of solid natural granite — one of the heaviest and most stable umbrella bases available in the UK today.
Why the SunVilla Pembrooke Outperforms Plastic & Cast Iron Bases
Plastic water-filled bases crack in cold temperatures, leak, and rarely hold enough weight to stay stable in wind. Cast iron bases are heavy but rust over time, leaving orange stains on your patio. The Pembrooke uses solid high-density granite — naturally weather-resistant, UV stable, and maintenance-free. It will look as good in year ten as it does on day one.
Key Features
- 27kg solid natural granite — low centre of gravity prevents tipping even in strong winds
- Compact 45 x 45 x 45cm footprint — fits neatly under most garden dining tables without taking up seating space

- Two-piece pole design — works both with and without a dining table, giving you full flexibility
- Rust-resistant stainless steel hardware — no corrosion, no staining on your patio surface

Who Is This For?
The SunVilla Pembrooke is ideal for anyone with a large market-style parasol (2.5m–4m diameter) who needs a base that won't move. It's particularly popular for exposed patios, poolside areas, and open garden spaces where wind exposure is higher. If you have a smaller balcony parasol or a lightweight umbrella, a lighter base would suit better.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this base fit my existing garden parasol? The Pembrooke fits umbrella poles up to 5cm (50mm) in diameter, which covers the vast majority of standard UK garden parasols. If your pole is larger than 5cm, you would need a different base.
Can I use this base without a dining table? Yes. The two-piece pole design works both standalone and through the hole of a garden dining table. It's fully flexible.
How do I move it — it's 27kg? The Pembrooke has hidden wheels built into the base and an integrated handle. Tilt it slightly in the direction of the wheels and it rolls easily without any heavy lifting.
Is the granite affected by UK weather? Natural granite is completely weather-resistant. It won't crack in frost, fade in UV, or corrode in rain. The stainless steel fittings are also rust-proof.
Does it come assembled? It arrives in two pieces requiring simple bolt assembly — no tools needed, takes approximately 10 minutes.
Complete Your Outdoor Seating Area
A sturdy umbrella base is a great foundation for a well-finished garden space, and it works nicely alongside a few other touches. To soften the look with a bit of greenery, a set of 3 artificial plants in pots adds colour and texture without any upkeep required. For comfortable seating beneath the shade, the Leisure Line Adirondack faux wood garden chair brings a classic, relaxed style to the patio. Or if you'd rather stretch out and unwind, the Kettler Cloud Relaxer zero gravity chair offers a more reclined, restful way to enjoy the garden. Together, these pieces help pull the whole outdoor setting together.
