I haven't asked yet as they put it up yesterday for their DS's birthday and then had a party. But, would ibu to ask them to move it to the other side of garden. At the moment it is at the bottem of garden on a raised wooden platform next to our garden. We have two problems with this:

  1. We've created a lovely little seating area at bottom of garden, having planted trees etc. to make it private. This is now overlooked and disturbed by anyone on the trampoline (yesterday I found myself being checked out by a bloke while I breastfed DD!)
  1. DS 3yo loves, loves, loves trampolines but we love, love, love our cottage-style garden and don't want one. This is now in constant view to DS and is likely to cause more badgering.

I was thinking of asking her to either move it to the other side of garden OR further up the garden so it isn't raised and doesn't overlook our usual seating area. I'm a bit crap at any sort of confrontation so just thought I'd gather your opinions on whether or not this would be unreasonable.

It's their garden, they should be able to do what they want.

Maybe you could put a nice big tree to block their vision? I know you shouldn't have to really but it's your problem not theirs.

Sorry but I don't think you should ask them to move it, its their garden.
