The recreation area on the site of a country house is a very important attribute in modern conditions. The correct design of a recreation area with a barbecue on the site of a private and country house with your own hands is quite possible, and saving on the services of designers or their minimization is quite real. Simple knowledge will allow you to prepare a project almost no worse than eminent professionals do.

Layout rules

The recreation space on the site of a private house and summer cottage should be located and equipped no less carefully than the main dwelling, well or garden. It is strongly undesirable to put the leisure area on the windy side.... There, even with a slight short worsening of bad weather, guests and hosts will feel uncomfortable.

There should be enough light in this place, but at the same time excessive illumination and overheating in summer are unacceptable.

To meet these conflicting demands, sometimes compromises have to be made.

Other key points:

  • the rationality of the location of all parts (so that it is convenient, comfortable and, in addition, safe);

  • the optimal distance between individual structures;

  • compliance with sanitary standards;

  • removal from the carriageway of roads, from other places where there is a lot of dust and noise.

Having dealt with these, so to speak, fundamental points, we can proceed to assessing a specific situation. It is useful to level the slope and equip with steps. Then it will be easier to use it. No part of the recreation area should be in a lowland, where it will constantly be threatened with flooding.... At the same time, you cannot put it so that the entrance (entrance) was blocked, or through this zone you had to get into the garden, the vegetable garden, into the outbuildings.

Views

A good design for arranging a recreation area may involve the use of an open terrace. Free access to street air allows us to recognize it as an ordinary street area. But the advantages of being close to the kitchen and living areas have not gone anywhere either. Landscaping of the space helps to enhance the impression... On the terrace, you can not only eat, but also enjoy the views, sunbathe, read something.

A good alternative on a garden plot is arrangement patio... The design has the shape of a circle or a rectangle. The space is framed with tiles of various shapes and colors. It is much easier to use concrete - but it looks too unassuming. The use of climbing plants is also considered an attractive choice.

In the patio look appropriate:

  • chairs;

  • dish chests of drawers;

  • small tables.

In a small summer cottage, they sometimes use simple open gazebos... Parapet 0.8 m high encloses the perimeter of the territory. The roof is mounted on vertical supports. The floor should be laid above ground level, which excludes flooding by precipitation and melt water. The simplicity of the gazebo and the ease of its arrangement are not the only advantages; suitability for installation anywhere in the garden also plays an important role.

But when resting, there is often a desire to feast on kebabs and other fried foods. At the same time, it is quite logical to equip barbecue corner.

Important: in addition, a canopy is arranged, which reliably cuts off the ingress of rain drops, snow.

Glazed walls, windows and doors provide additional protection. The significant size of the glazing makes it easier to ventilate on summer days; warming up in the cold season is supported by fireplaces or even stoves.

Lovers of new products may like "Green room"... This leisure zone is divided into a number of parts. Plant barriers are built between them. An alternative is the use of thin curtains or pergolas with climbing plants. A solution has also been developed that ensures maximum privacy: we are talking about tall green hedges.

For them, shrubs like barberry or conifers are planted; cabinets can be distinguished by their functional application.

Arrangement and design options

The most important difference between these options is the use of different types of furniture. Traditionally they put there:

  • plastic products;

  • wooden furnishings;

  • rattan products;

  • construction of stainless steel or aluminum.

However, it is hardly reasonable to limit ourselves to such mass objects. Arrangement of a recreation area on a personal plot with your own hands often involves using a hammock... And even if it seems that there is no need for it, it is enough just to try - usually, after a few weeks, the opinion changes. It is in a secluded corner of the garden that the sleeping area is most appropriate... It makes no sense to decorate it somehow exquisitely, on the contrary, you should try to fit it into a simple ordinary interior.

A dacha is often purchased for a family, and not just for personal recreation. And in such a context, the placement of a swing is quite appropriate there. But they do not become an independent part, but only an addition to the general environment, and therefore they need to be combined with something else.

There is a place for this element:

  • on the terrace;

  • in pergolas;

  • in a remote corner of the garden, closed from prying eyes.

Rest sometimes takes a long time. In this case, it is impossible to do without lying places. It is useful to equip the furniture for lying with mattresses, blankets. It does not hurt (if there is no other roof) to use a canopy.

Attention: it is worth considering in advance how they will go there, whether it is convenient to use such a sleeping area.

Permanent stay in a country house or an active visit to the cottage makes the use of a garden stove a very relevant solution... No original delights are required - it is enough to focus on the appearance and structure of Russian or Dutch stoves. The choice of brick or natural stone is at the discretion of the owner. Side dish shelves, although they are used quite often, are quite useful, and therefore they cannot be considered as some kind of template.

Since we are talking about relaxation, the swimming pools are definitely worth mentioning.

Of course, they no longer cause the furore that they produced 20-25 years ago, when they were new, but nevertheless, the benefits and pleasure are beyond doubt. At the same time, experts emphasize that you will have to equip a polycarbonate canopy and take care of drainage and water purification. It is also necessary to cover the area near the water with non-slip tiles.... The surrounding space, in order to avoid obvious boredom, needs to be decorated with plants and lamps (the latter will also give additional safety in the dark).

Another good option is to use arches.... It is useful to remember that they are made not only of metal, but also of plastic. Entwined with ivy, vines looks very elegant.

The arched structure itself is usually placed where it will visually delimit the recreation area from another space.

But it is curious that it can also be assigned the role of the main stylistic filler.

Small architectural forms will help to diversify the recreation area.... Their ageless classic is flower bed... However, and pergolas can also be used calm - they become another good addition. Some simply lay out the site with a large multi-colored stone. Or they install wooden, metal sculptures, the choice of appearance of which is huge.

Pleasant The Moorish lawn can also add a zest to the situation... Outwardly, it looks like a simple meadow with flowers.

It is very important that perennial grasses with different flowering times and uniform stem length grow on it.

On the Moorish lawn, it is nice to put a sun lounger. Although for more active leisure, it is better to use other solutions.

Sometimes, taking into account all considerations, it is necessary to set aside a place for a recreation area that is open to all eyes from neighboring sites, or even from the street.

It does not matter: you can wrap a flaw in dignity. In addition to the already mentioned green barriers, the use of decorative curtains (curtains) is an excellent solution. Of course, besides the choice of colors and geometric shapes, we must not forget that they must be made of materials that are resistant to moisture and fading.

It is also useful to pay attention to the desired style. So, in a retro corner, you can get by with one or two rectangular sofas and a table between them. There is practically no sense in adding anything more to this composition. Unless you think about creating a shadow. In open areas, it is imperative to provide for lighter colors of objects so that they warm up less in sunny weather.

Here are some more recommendations:

  • it is useful to put stationary benches in gazebos;

  • you can equip them with full-fledged home theaters;
  • the glass-walled terrace looks elegant;
  • any glazed buildings can be made "transformers" due to removable frames;
  • by varying the angles of inclination of the roof, you can beat the gazebo in a very interesting way;
  • it is easy to place even a summer study in the "green room";
  • you should not discard such proven solutions as a fountain or an alpine slide;
  • ampelous cultures in the "rock garden" look great.
