I'm looking to renovate a couple of garden benches by replacing the
slats. These are wide benches so the standard kits of slats are not
long enough.

I have some hardwood planks that are suitable but would need to have
the edges rounded.

I am considering a router. Can someone point me in the direction of a
cheap and cheerful router that would do the job.

To be fair pretty much any small router will make an easy job of this
kind of task if equipped with a bearing guided roundover cutter.

An entry level 1/4" collet machine like:

Or for edge detailing work, the smaller "laminate trimmer" class
machines are very nice. This is very popular with woodworkers:
