The Firefly Hot Air Balloon Solar String Lights are a hit with shoppers who say they look "amazing" at night, and they've recently come back in stock at the popular homeware store.
Scanning at £7.99, the solar lights automatically light up at dusk and feature a flame effect LED to illuminate your garden during the summer evenings.
Home Bargains says the lights bring a "magical glow to your outdoor space", while each light comes with a rechargeable battery and is easy to install.
The retailer adds on its website: "The lights automatically turn on at dusk, providing a warm, inviting ambiance with a stunning flame LED effect.
"No wires or fuss—just let the sun charge them during the day, and enjoy the beautiful light as the evening falls."
The lights are incredibly popular among Home Bargains fans and have previously sold out on the store's website.
They've also proved to be a viral sensation on social media, with several shoppers posting to Facebook to share their finds and sparking a frenzy among fellow bargain hunters.
One fan posted a picture of the lights to the Bargain Lovers Facebook Group, with hundreds of garden owners replying to leave their reviews.
"I've got those they are stunning," one shopper wrote, while another said they were so pleased they were going back to Home Bargains to get more.
More garden buys
Experts have revealed that outdoor lighting can also be used to elevate the look of your home.
And B&M is currently offering the Soho Stainless Steel Modern Solar Wall Light for 50% off.
Shoppers can now pick up the "stylish" light for £1.50 instead of £3.
Alternatively, you can opt for garden decor buys to transform your outdoor space.
The bargain retailer is also supplying garden wall art for cheaper than ever.
Shoppers can "bring a calming vibe" to their outdoor space with a Buddha Wall Plaque.
The decor item has been reduced from £3 to £2 as part of the summer sale.

Chilling rise of ‘psycho' cats – domestic pets crossed with wild animals bought online & now prowling UK streets

The cats are mixed with wild servals - and armed cops had to retrieve one that escaped WILD SIDE Chilling rise of 'psycho' cats – domestic pets crossed with wild animals bought online & now prowling UK streets Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THERE'S a rise in Brits adopting "psycho" hybrid cats described as unsuitable pets - with armed cops even called in to retrieve one. Savannah cats are the result of breeding wild African servals with domestic moggies - and a special Dangerous Wild Animal Licence (DWA) is needed to own first generation crosses (F1) of the "breed". Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 A savannah cat that was on the loose in Hampstead in 2020 Credit: SWNS 6 Worried neighbours had called cops after spotting the 'big cat' 6 Armed cops in Hampstead retrieved the cat It comes after The Sun exposed the dangerous exotic animal trade - with 12 lions and more than 70 venomous rattlesnakes currently being kept as pets in the UK. Celebs and influencers, including Justin Bieber, are among those to have owned savannah cats - but experts warn they can be a major risk, especially to other pets. Bieber's wife Hailey described his two savannah's as "pyscho". Armed police were called in 2020 to affluent Billionaire's Row in Hampstead, London, when one escaped causing panic among neighbours. READ MORE NEWS WILD SIDE Inside exotic animal trade with 12 LIONS among dangerous pets kept at UK homes The latest Government data shows at least 30 F1 versions of the species are being kept in the UK - but many more later generation examples are currently on these shores, with numbers rising. F1s can cost as much as £20,000 - but sites like Pets4Homes list non-first generation savannah kitten litters for sale for as little as £200 each. Chris Lewis, captivity research manager for Born Free, told The Sun people should not be fooled, and it's impossible to remove the wild genes and instincts in just one or two generations. He said: 'I would strongly advise against anyone wanting to purchase a savannah cat. 'They're considered to be a step up from your common domestic cat, because they're bigger, they're quite striking in appearance and have featured in a number of online videos with influencers or celebrities. 'So they are considered to be a fashionable pet, I guess." Pet dog runs on court to celebrate as Emma Raducanu is beaten by Anna Kalinskaya in Washington He continued: 'Once you get into the second generation of Savannah cats, you then don't need a license anymore, which I think helps with their appeal and also that raises questions as to whether that's even appropriate because you have this animal, which is only two generations away from its wild parents, and you suddenly don't need a license for it yet… 'It is quite bizarre, almost a bit of a loophole with the licensing.' Chris said he would encourage people to remember that the domestication of cats and dogs occurred over the thousands of years over multiple generations. 'To assume that an animal after just two generations is suitable and capable of being kept adequately in a domestic environment within the UK is perhaps not appropriate, not advisable,' he continued. 'And any hybridisation of two species which are so noticeably different because the breeding of a domestic cat and a wild cat can be filled with welfare issues for the animals involved." Savannah's are not simply high maintenance, they are different animals from domestic cats - described as energetically hardwired, they are often accused of terrorising neighbourhood pets when allowed to roam. RSPCA scientific officer Evangeline Button told Discover Wildlife: 'It can be extremely difficult to meet the needs of a savannah cat. 'Providing an environment that meets the needs of these large animals is likely to prove extremely difficult, particularly in the average family home. "Animals should only be kept in captivity if good welfare can be assured.' 6 Savannah kittens can be bought online for a few hundred pounds 6 Savannahs are a mix of wild servals (pictured) and domestic cats Credit: Alamy

The historic English manor that's launched a new Italian-like wine terrace in time for summer

Relaxing among the backdrop of an 18th century manor house, there are frankly few better ways to spend an evening SPA-TACULAR The historic English manor that's launched a new Italian-like wine terrace in time for summer Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) I FEEL like I'm in a quaint Italian town as I sit listening to live guitar while enjoying a glass of wine in a beautiful ivy-walled courtyard. Yet I'm nowhere near Italy. I'm in the heart of Kent, visiting an historic health spa during its landmark 100th anniversary year.

From its quirky beginnings as the nation's first 'health farm', pioneering hydrotherapy in the '50s, to introducing Ayurvedic therapies in the '70s, and launching Britain's first wellness bootcamps in the '90s, the brand has always been ahead of the curve in wellness trends. This year, it is marking the milestone with a year-long 100 Years Young campaign. Think exclusive treatments and great products you won't find elsewhere. Eastwell Manor, near Ashford, has under­gone extensive renovations, including a total spa refresh, and I marvel at the view via a new summer terrace, while tucking into local Gusbourne Vineyard rosé. The wine is the only UK entry to make the top 50 in the 2025 World's Best Vineyards Awards. A variety of amazing small plates, including a delicious whipped feta and flatbreads, are the perfect accompaniment. Of course, you could go bigger, with pizzas, burgers and sandwiches on offer (the sea pizza being a feast of garlic chili prawns, salmon and pickles). Relaxing among the backdrop of an 18th century manor house, there are frankly few better ways to spend an evening. The next day I was transported from Italy to France, with a beautifully laid out picnic on the manor grounds. Go on a virtual tour of the Champneys hotel - the perfect Mother's Day retreat Hopping into one of the hotel Range Rovers, I am assured by the driver that the walk would be far too difficult to do myself. Taking an entire three minutes, I feel slightly put out until I spot the size of the hamper being hauled from the boot with a bucket of champagne. Perhaps my driver was right after all. My only company is an errant bee as he leaves me to enjoy a feast of fresh pastries and sandwiches. With more than enough to feed two people, I should have asked him to join me. Back at the spa, there are more centenary celebrations to delight, including two exclusive treatments. My Champneys 100 Years Facial (£105) begins with a meditation, followed by a triple cleanse, exfoliation and anti-ageing cryotherapy globes. Back at the spa, there's more centenary celebrations to delight, including two exclusive treatments. For more ingulgence, you could opt for The 100 Years Face & Body Reset (£150) with a massage, wood therapy, and lemon tea to finish. Along with the standard indoor swimming pool, with sauna, steam rooms and hot tub, there's a newly revamped outdoor pool, with cream-covered plush sunloungers and beautiful sunset views. Tucked next door are the Mews Cottages, with my room hidden behind a baby pink door. Inside, a comfy double bed and lounge look out over lush grounds, and I make the most of the roll-top bath and Elemis toiletries. Complete with my leftover hamper strawberries. Not bad for a spa that's been doing this for 100 years. They've clearly learned a thing or two about la dolce vita. 3 The Sun's Kara Godfrey enjoys the view from Eastwell Manor's new summer terrace Credit: Handout
