Easy to put together. Large capacity bird bath. It looks like it will be simple to clean out too. And more importantly, the birds like it.

The colour and shape of the bowl are very pleasing and the stand gives a sensible height. The birds are taking a little while to use it as confidently as they do the smaller bowl but I’ve bought some pebbles now and will create a couple of islands, giving the birds smaller areas to use. Once again service was amazing with the bird bath arriving the day after being ordered. Thank you

Surprisingly light! Neat, smart, will be much easier to clean than my previous concrete bath which had started to disintegrate, a bit bigger than I thought (and I'm not much into checking measurerments) but fits nicely where I want it. Birds haven't had much need to use it recently but I'm sure will get used to it. Service was excellent backed up by very efficient delivery. Thanks you.

I absolutely love this bird bath. Looks great and after a couple of weeks the smaller birds are drinking out of it. Yesterday morning a pigeon was having a bath. All welcome in my garden

Very pleased with my bird bath. Arrived promptly and was 2ell packed. Is the second time I've bought from VineHouse Farm and highly recommend them.
An issue for some types of bird bath and in particular those made from stone or concrete, is that they can crack during the winter due to how frozen water expands in mass. The Coniston bird bath isn’t prone to this problem, because it’s made from a very strong material called Clayplas. This material combines natural clay with recycled plastic, making it highly tough and durable.
The importance of providing clean water for garden birds cannot be overstated, and is just or even more important than providing food. This is true for all the months of the year, and especially in urban areas where there are few if any natural sources of clean water.
Birds need water for both drinking and bathing, with the importance of the former being increased when feeding garden birds with most bird foods. This is because, and with the exception of live mealworms and waxworms, food put out for birds contains no moisture - and birds need to stay hydrated like all living creatures. Bathing is important to help maintain the condition of feathers, and hence why birds often preen them after coming out of a bird bath.
Is the Coniston bird bath easy to keep clean?
Yes the Coniston bird bath is very easy to clean, with the smooth surface allowing for dirt and algae to be easily removed using a brush and water. Remember that if you use any sort of chemical detergent to help clean the bird bath, then it’s vital that this is fully rinsed off with clean water before refilling the bird bath.
