So you moved into your dream home with that wonderful big garden. What are you going to do with all that lovely outdoor space? More and more people are installing summer houses in their gardens, and with good reason too. They look great, adding a lovely feature to your property, but they are really practical too.
Summer houses can be used in so many different ways and perform so many different functions. Some people just want a little quiet sanctuary where they can take time out and think and recharge their batteries, while enjoying the beauty of the garden at the same time. Other people have hobbies, like painting for example. Summer houses can double as studios, where you can seek inspiration and paint in blissful peace and quiet.
You want a space for the kids to play in or a fun place to entertain guests in the warmer weather, maximising the enjoyment you get from the garden. You can always pack the man of the house out there to watch the big game while you and kids enjoy what you want on the TV indoors. The possibilities are endless.
Summer houses come a variety of styles and sizes. There's an option for any garden and any budget. First things first, how much room do you have? You don't want anything too big that will dominate the garden and detract from other features. What sort of home do you have? You will want to choose something that is in keeping with the overall look, style and theme of your home and garden. How much do you have to spend? Summer houses can be pretty elaborate. It's easy to get carried away! Agree a budget and then stick to it.
Once you have it installed the whole family can enjoy this wonderful feature and spend some quality time out in the garden.
