Depending on the area, why not cover it with the 'waterproof' type carpet
of
synthetic lawn. Years ago when Cyril Lord was making very cheap carpets,
he
produced a 'carpet' called "Cyril Lawn".

Next year I will be using some carpet tiles for an area in the garden. If
you can wait, I'll report back here on how I get on.
