If you search for "braided PVC hose 32mm" you'll get something that lasts forever.  It's a tad inflexible in winter (but perfectly usable).  I have 40M of it down the side of the garden and the house; it's been there for six years through all kinds of weather and is just fine.  The other end, where I move it to fill the van, is in just as good nick.

I've been using this for a couple of years. Coils up nicely when not in use.

I have recently purchased some braided hose already, It kinks fairly easily....wish my mrs would LOL

Was hoping someone would put up a link of tried and test hose, as you can't always tell what you are getting when buying online
