When you want to distract from everyday vanity and stay away from concrete jungles, the idea of resting in your favorite country house, a dinner in the open air and friendly gatherings by the fire with a barbecue immediately slips in your head.
To turn all these dreams into reality, you need to take care of the proper arrangement of your site. In this case we are talking about a cozy summer gazebo , where you can always hide from the scorching sun, spend time with company of relatives, arrange small family holidays, and in the mornings with a cup of coffee to meet a new day.
Today, there are many variants of summer pavilions for summer cottages and houses, differing in size, shape and original design. About the most common models, which always harmoniously complement the exterior of your yard, we now talk.

A semi-open summer gazebo made of bricks or stone is a great place to arrange a stationary summer kitchen and a dining room.

A more budget option is a summer gazebo made of polycarbonate. Against the backdrop of the modern, stylish interior of the courtyard, the construction of metal and transparent or translucent coatings looks very harmonious. A vivid proof of this is the summer gazebos-verandas. Often they are a continuation of the facade of the house and serve as a recreation area for adults and children.

A very useful and extremely practical element of the landscape design of the cottage will be a closed summer gazebo-house. This is a miniature house made of wood or brick, with windows and doors that can serve as a full-fledged dining room or a summer kitchen where you can cook food and rest, sheltering from the weather.
