🚚 sold out! 🎁 FREE Patio Heater + Tripod (Worth £300!)
Create a genuine outdoor room with the MotaShade™ by Bliss 3×3m Motorised Aluminium Pergola. Built entirely from heavy-duty, powder-coated aluminium — including the roof louvres — this is a structure designed to last. With its motorised double-layered louvred roof, three retractable windscreens and integrated LED mood lighting, it gives you full control over light, shade and privacy all year round — at the touch of a button.
Finished in a sleek anthracite grey with matching dark grey windscreens, the MotaShade™ brings a clean, architectural look to any patio or garden. It is built on substantial 12 cm architectural posts — the heaviest-duty frame in our range — and the neat 3×3m footprint is ideal for compact patios and smaller gardens, comfortably housing a four-seater dining set or a cosy corner sofa. The smart built-in drainage system channels rainwater discreetly through the legs, so there are no unsightly downpipes and no puddles collecting around your feet. And because every component is aluminium — not steel — you get superior corrosion resistance without the maintenance burden.
To help you get even more from your outdoor space from day one, this pergola comes with a free patio heater and tripod worth £300 — so your evenings outside don't have to end when the temperature drops.

All-aluminium build — including the roof louvres Many pergolas at this price point use steel louvres, which are heavier and more prone to rust over time. Every component of the MotaShade™ — from the substantial 12 cm architectural-grade posts to the roof panels — is aluminium. That means a stronger, lighter and more weather-resistant structure that requires no surface treatments or seasonal upkeep. |
|
Motorised double-layered louvres — adjusted at the touch of a button There is no crank handle on the MotaShade™. The louvres are driven by an integrated electric motor, so you can open, close or angle the roof from the remote control without leaving your seat — let the sunshine in, then close up in seconds when showers arrive. The dual-layer aluminium louvre design works like double-glazed windows: an air gap between each layer helps improve rain resistance, reduce heat transfer and minimise noise compared with a standard single-layer roof.

Three Universal 3m Windscreens for Privacy & All-Round Comfort The set includes three manually adjustable 3m pull-down windscreens in dark grey, giving you flexible privacy, shade and shelter around your pergola. Every screen is universal: with all four sides measuring 3m, each screen can be fitted to whichever three sides you choose — enclose the back and sides for a sheltered nook, or arrange them to suit your layout. Additional screens can be added at any time via our MotaShade™ accessories range. Offering wind resistance up to 30mph and blocking up to 95% of sunlight, they're ideal for creating shade on bright afternoons or shelter from an evening breeze. |
|
Integrated LED mood lighting already built in There is no need to buy or install separate lighting. LEDs are built into the gutter system around the pergola's perimeter, letting you set the atmosphere to suit the occasion — from a relaxed family dinner to a lively evening with friends. |
|
Smart drainage — no puddles, no unsightly pipes Rainwater is channelled through the pergola's legs and directed safely into the ground. There are no external downpipes to work around and no water pooling beneath the structure — keeping your patio tidy and your outdoor space practical even after heavy rain. |
|
Free patio heater and tripod worth £300 Extend your outdoor season well beyond the summer months with a free patio heater and tripod, worth £300. Perfect for cooler spring evenings and autumn nights. There's no need to add the heater to your basket; it will be automatically included with your order.

From leisurely weekend lunches and summer evening entertaining to sheltered morning coffees and cosy autumn gatherings, the MotaShade™ transforms your garden into a room you can use in almost any weather. The compact 3×3m footprint is ideal for smaller patios and gardens — perfect for a four-seater dining set, a cosy corner sofa or a sheltered morning-coffee spot. Open the louvres for sunshine and fresh air at the press of a button, close them when clouds roll in, draw the windscreens for privacy during a quiet dinner or wind protection during a breezy bank holiday afternoon — then switch on the LEDs as the light fades. Whether it is a patio, a garden, a courtyard or a large deck, this pergola gives the space a sense of structure, shelter and style that makes you want to spend more time outdoors.

Is this pergola fully waterproof?
The MotaShade™ is designed to provide excellent shelter from rain during normal outdoor conditions. When the double-layered louvres are fully closed, the roof provides strong rain protection with tighter sealing and reduced noise compared to single-layer designs. However, in extreme weather — such as wind-driven rain or very heavy storms — some ingress can occur. This pergola is an outdoor structure, not a sealed room. In high winds, the louvres should be opened and windscreens retracted to protect the structure (see the wind safety note below).
Does the pergola need to be fixed to the ground?
Yes — the MotaShade™ must be securely bolted to a solid surface such as a concrete patio, paving slabs or a suitable decking base. The four corner posts each have a 188 mm × 188 mm base plate with four bolt holes, concealed beneath a 195 mm decorative base cover. Fixing the pergola correctly is essential for safety and structural stability, particularly in adverse weather. Our professional installation team can take care of this for you if required.
Can I add extra screens, sliding doors or other accessories?
Yes — we offer a range of compatible accessories designed to fit the MotaShade™ 3×3m model — including 3m retractable windscreens, aluminium louvre side walls and sliding door systems. You can browse the full pergola accessories collection here. Always check compatibility before ordering to ensure accessories are the correct fit for this model and size.
Is assembly difficult, and is professional installation available?
Self-assembly typically takes two people around four hours to complete. Full instructions and all fixings are included in the box. If you would prefer a hassle-free setup, our expert installation team can install the pergola for you at an additional cost — please visit our Professional Pergola Installation page for details and pricing.
Are other sizes available?
