Answer

Patio or decking: which is better?

Patio for ground level and low upkeep; decking for slopes, raised areas and near water.

In short

Both are good; it depends on the space and the look. A patio suits ground level, low maintenance, and a contemporary or period feel. Decking suits a slope, a raised area or a warmer, softer surface, and works beautifully near water. We often use both in one garden.
