I see you're in Warwickshire, I can recommend a visit to Jacksons of Old Arley, they normally have a good range of chairs in a large display area where you can sit in and compare them and their prices are usually competitive. It's a great place for spare parts for vans too (like door catches etc) and the staff know their stuff.
I'm afraid chairs are one of those things, one that I find comfortable, someone else will find unbearable, so without sitting in them yourself, it's almost impossible to chose. We got nice Kampa recliners from Jacksons that we like, but they don't have a footrest, so not what you're after.

I would try as many as you can - and choose those which suit you best. We've had a variety over the years and now find that we prefer two different chairs - lightweight folding plastic ones for sitting at the table, and 'relaxers' for relaxing!
The best were bought from a Practical Caravan offer many years ago and were just so comfortable. Replacements from Go Outdoors were awful, we hated our Lafumas with separate footrests, and the two Lafumas we bought in France now need new elastics as they have lost their 'firmness'. Our comfiest at the moment are two we bought from Dunelm Mills for £58.00 the pair, but they aren't separate footrests.

we tried a pair of Isabella recliners yesterday which were fabulously comfortable but very heavy. Do manufacturers assume that everyone has a Chelsea Tractor or Executive Bus these days? Whatever happened to lightweight furniture for those of us on a payload budget? Has anyone out there found something on the lighter side? Would appreciate any recommendations!
