Covered gazebos with barbecue can make ordinary cooking a real pleasure and enjoyable time. Dishes are cooked over an open fire, which significantly transforms the taste of dishes and makes them more juicy and healthy.

Most of the owners of summer cottages, in addition to the location of the barbecue in the gazebo, also prefer the presence of a stove, a smokehouse and a brazier. There are many options and they depend mainly on the needs of the landlord.

In a small gazebo, you can install a small table and a sink for cooking. In a larger house, you can even fit a refrigerator for storing food. In any case, the space of such a room should be used practically, because the gazebo is not designed for too much furniture. Most often, the traditional dining area is a dining table and chairs or a guest bench. To save space in the room, the benches can be moved under the table.

There are gazebos, in which there is even a bar counter or a sofa for comfortable accommodation of guests. Such gazebos can be considered full-fledged rest homes with family or friends.

Closed gazebos with barbecue can be very diverse, so you should stop your choice on those solutions that will most successfully combine with the landscape of the summer cottage and other buildings.

For the correct distribution of financial costs for the construction of a closed country house, it is necessary to carefully think over all the details in advance. The design stage involves the choice of material from which the recreation facility will be erected. The walls of a closed gazebo house are best made of building materials that have the lowest thermal conductivity, for example, timber and bricks. In this case, it will be possible to comfortably relax in the gazebo in the cold season, without an additional source of heating.

A construction from a bar can be entrusted to professionals, and it is also easy to build it yourself. During construction, it is important to follow the basic rules:

• Closed versions must be equipped with a chimney and good ventilation in accordance with basic fire safety rules.
• The location of the building on the garden plot also plays an important role. You should not install a house on the border with the neighbors' site. In addition, it is advisable to build the structure itself in a shady and cozy place for a harmonious combination with the overall landscape area.

• The choice of glazing and the construction of windows should be considered at the design stage of the garden house.
• Installation of lighting fixtures and water supply will make the gazebo a full-fledged summer cottage, where you can comfortably sit on vacation at any time of the year.

After the place for the construction has been selected, it is necessary to start work on the foundation project. As a rule, it must support the total weight of the entire structure. The first step is to draw a diagram of the project.

The foundation of buildings is columnar and tape. The first is suitable for small structures, such as metal and wood. As for the second, this method of construction will be an excellent option for the construction of more serious structures made of brick and stone.

Gazebos with barbecue are different, in this case it all depends on the chosen building material, the imagination of the owner of such a household and on the financial costs. Some prefer a small and unpretentious barbecue with grates, others prefer the kind of live fire in the stove, and still others want a covered gazebo-house with a complete stove set: a place for cooking, an extractor hood and a section for storing firewood.

For the construction of closed gazebos, various architectural styles are used. Among these buildings you can find classical forms, Empire, Baroque, Gothic and many others.

The choice of bricks for construction is done taking into account the color scheme of the suburban area as a whole. For fans of extravagant style, the option of combining different shades is suitable, and for those who like to stick to traditional things, red brick is perfect. In addition, it retains heat better due to natural raw materials, which are used in the manufacture of this building material.

Consider the main pros and cons of the most common building materials for the construction of closed garden gazebos.

The main advantages of a brick building include the following features:
