tis rather nice they made an outdoor one, although old mr practical might consider the nature of Devon weather while planning a picnic for a lot of folk most of whom (and their food) might melt, dissolve or set solid

this has avoided that and done a nice job

There is a beautiful long table in Wilderhope Manor (NT and YHA) in Shropshire, in the main hall...I must have some photos from when my father was warden there.
No mention of it in any reviews unfortunately
