There is something of the old village drinking fountain about this AllPondSolutions water feature - a tap over a basin, running quietly to itself. The marble-look finish keeps it from feeling twee, and at 31.5 x 26 x 57.5cm it fits a patio corner or the end of a path without dominating either. It feels and looks like stone and works in a contemporary or minimalistic looking garden.
No mains water feed is required and there is no difficult wiring, because the pump runs off a solar panel. Connect the water pump piping, install the panel where it gets full sun, add water and enjoy.
