But for many of us, the thought of nosy neighbours peeking into our outside space can leave us filled with anxiety, and unable to properly relax.
Putting up a large fence around your garden may seem like the obvious choice to keep away prying eyes, but this can be expensive - and can sometimes lead to disagreements with neighbours.
However, Amazon's Natural Reed Outdoor Privacy Fence, offers the perfect solution.
The stylish fence comes in two colours, 'Natural' and 'Carbonised' meaning that there's a design to suit any garden.
The bamboo screen comes with 100 ties, making it easy to attach to an existing fence or balcony.
It promises to enhance "ambience and privacy", and at just £5.61, is the perfect buy for penny pinchers.
It is also made from sturdy materials, meaning you don't have to worry about it getting blown away in the wind.
A product description reads: " This bamboo fence panel offers a natural and stylish solution for your outdoor space, effectively blocking unwanted views while blending seamlessly with the natural surroundings of your garden or patio.
"Perfect for creating an intimate area in your yard while enhancing the overall ambiance and safeguarding your privacy."
I made a DIY fence for £68 with pallets from Facebook Marketplace - it gives more privacy & people say it's 'fantastic'
Another fence perfect for penny-pinchers is B&Q's Natural Reed Garden Screen, which can keep your garden out of view of snoopers, for just £16
A description reads: "This Klikstrom natural screening is perfect for adding both privacy and a contemporary style to your outdoor spaces.
"Crafted from durable material, this product is self supporting and weather resistant."
Shoppers have been raving about the bargain buy on the B&Q website.
How high can a garden fence be?
Despite what many people think a garden fence can be as high as 100m but you need to get planning permission for any fence taller than 2m.
Any fence under 2m does not need planning permission.
However, there are some complications to this.
If you are thinking about front garden fences, restrictions state that fences alongside a driveway can be a maximum of 1m or 3ft.
You would need to get planning permission for putting a trellis on a fence of 2m.
But, if any plant that you grow on that trellis exceeds 2m, you do not need to obtain a permit for the growing plant.

The stylish screen comes in a realistic leaf design, perfect for blending in to your greenery.
Plus, the product has been made with premium wood and weather resistant plastic, making it extra durable - so you don't have to worry about it coming down in windy or rainy conditions.
A product description reads: "Bring refreshing greenery to your outdoor décor with this artificial hedge panel.
"Designed for versatility, it works as a fence screen, wall décor, or garden hedge.
