Design of a relaxation area in the garden. We create a comfortable and attractive recreation area at the dacha. Relaxation area idea for sloping areas

1. Gone are the days when summer residents went to their dachas to work. Now we want to get all the delights from our garden plot countryside holiday, when you can relax in the fresh air, inhaling the aroma of plants blooming nearby, having an intimate conversation or reading a wonderful novel. That's what the dacha is for, that's what the weekend is for.

But our plot of land is very small... But the neighbor’s plot is at arm’s length... And fenced off from ours - no, not even by a fence... But, symbolically, by some kind of net.
It is not decent to install blank walls - the neighbors will think that you don’t like them. Yes, and it's expensive.
What to do?

Five most popular types of recreation areas

2. In our article we will talk about five original ideas, how to organize a recreation area at the dacha.

- Patio. This is an open courtyard, surrounded on different sides by terraces, flower beds, hedges, etc.

Patios were widespread in antiquity and the medieval Mediterranean, especially in Spain. Exists big variety opportunities to organize a patio at your summer cottage. For example, an open box with two walls, a pergola roof and a plank floor.
(A pergola is a canopy with a lattice roof).

And here’s another option for a patio: boards are nailed to the wall of the house and a wooden post dug in nearby - thus enclosing cozy corner. The floor is poured with concrete screed.
Depending on the size of the plot and the preferences of the owners, on the patio you can put a swimming pool or a fountain, a flower bed, a barbecue, a fireplace, etc.

- Gazebo. A traditional element of a recreation area. The roof of the gazebo is made of durable material that can protect from rain or hail. If the roof of the gazebo is made of polycarbonate, you can enjoy the sun's rays without leaving the gazebo.

The walls of gazebos are usually made of lattice, but individual species gazebos do not provide such barriers - the roof rests on pillars, providing the owners and their guests with all the beauty of open space, while at the same time protecting them from the burning sun.

Climbing plants are often planted around the perimeter of the gazebo, which form a wonderful screen.

— Closed area. By and large, this is a room located outside the house. This structure has a dense roof. The walls can be made of reeds, lathing, fabric canopies, etc. Flower beds and shrubs would look quite appropriate in the immediate vicinity of such a site.

— Relaxation area under the trees. This wonderful place relaxation during the heat, when the trees cover you with their shadow from the oppressive heat. However, wet weather will not be comfortable here.

- Terrace. It is also a very popular holiday destination among summer residents. The terrace is adjacent to the house, and is usually located along the entire length of the wall.

The terrace can be open or closed. Enclosed terraces have a dense roof over the entire area. On the open terrace, if necessary, you can place a mechanical sliding umbrella.

Arrangement and decoration of the recreation area

3. The recreation area in the country, as a rule, is equipped with durable and practical furniture that is not afraid of the sun and moisture. Rattan or plastic furniture is perfect for this purpose. For lovers of upholstered furniture, you can suggest using special pillows.

Placed on the seat and back of wooden furniture, they will create the necessary comfort. The good thing about pillows is that you can always bring them into the house. Pillows with removable covers are best.

The cover can always be washed if necessary. It couldn't be better for such an area rest is suitable hearth This could be a traditional grill, or an outdoor fireplace. The outbreak can be stationary or mobile.

If the space is very small, and it is not possible to install even a mobile fireplace, place an ordinary flower girl in the center of the site on a concrete pedestal, pour coals into it - here you have an improvised fireplace.

An excellent decorative element for such a site would be hanging bells, ribbons, bird feeders, and flower pots. Safe electric candles can be installed. A great idea is to create a mini-garden in this space. The paths leading to the terrace and the threshold can be illuminated with special road lamps, lamps in the form of columns or recessed lamps.

Plants for the recreation area

4. When choosing plants for a recreation area, we adhere to two rules. First, the plants should feel quite comfortable in your climate. Second, the plants must feel comfortable with each other.

In general, we advise you to opt for unpretentious plants that do not require special care. Plants that are optimally suited for middle latitudes include: virgin grapes, clematis, hops, climbing roses, etc.

Of course, any summer resident strives to create a cozy corner on his site where he can retire and indulge in relaxation of soul and body. In our article we talked about the most popular ideas for arranging a recreation area in a country house.

The proverb “there is time for work, but there is an hour for fun” once had the opposite meaning: “for work there is time, and there is an hour for fun,” that is, work is work, but one must not forget about rest, even in the midst of work in the garden and in the garden. We have repeatedly told how to arrange recreation areas with a fireplace for a cauldron or a Pompeian stove, with a gazebo from your wildest dreams, expressing the individuality and spiritual passions of the owner. And if the size of the plot does not allow you to equip large gazebos and create complex stove complexes, you can make a “quick”, actually mobile recreation area for a summer house or private house.

Canopy and mobile walls

As often happens, a relaxation area in the dacha of the user FORUMHOUSE Denisov appeared naturally. At first, in this place next to the house (5x4m in size) there was an inherited bathtub, covered with a door - it was a table. Then a tent appeared above the table, which stood right on the ground, then the floor was made, then the rest area began to look like in the photographs below. Furniture and a cauldron with a stove were constantly rearranged from place to place in search of the ideal one.

The tent’s awning served for three seasons, and it turned out that “pilaf with rainwater is not a tasty dish.” The need for a permanent canopy arose in full force, and the recreation area had to remain open, but if necessary, protect from possible precipitation. Denisov came up with the idea to build such a cool thing for his project: a side coupe. The sliding wall is made of a polycarbonate sheet that moves along guides. Usually it is located near the wall of the house, and when the need arises, it moves and closes the canopy.

Since the recreation area is located close to the house, the main problem was to protect the canopy from possible snow falling off the roof. For this purpose, it was decided to make snow retainers like these.

When the plot is small, the recreation area is often located close to the house. This way the available space is used more intelligently and economically, and so more possibilities to create at the same time inaccessible to prying eyes and a summer-like open space with a pergola roof, or even without a roof at all. The main thing is that the barbecue or stove does not stand too close to the house, and the walls do not get dirty with smoke and soot.

Recreation area on the site: planning

You can set up a recreation area on any, even the tiniest garden plot. True, when planning it, one must take into account the cardinal directions and prevailing winds.

To equip an ideal resting place in the garden, you need to remember that it must be located with its “back” to the prevailing winds.

This “back,” if possible, should be a blank wall. And since gatherings usually take place in the evenings, you need to think about how to prevent the setting sun from the west from blinding your eyes. And so - even a nook between the house and the garage can be turned into a place for relaxation, quiet evening gatherings and brunches on the weekend. Our design assistants are here: lattice pergolas, vertical flower beds, potted plants, mobile garden furniture, portable mini-barbecues, awnings instead of a stationary roof. Instead of sun loungers and benches, you can use options for frameless garden furniture: you can sunbathe on bean bags by the pool during the day, and sit in them by the fire in the evening.

They are stuffed with foamed polystyrene, which is sold in hardware stores. The main thing is that for garden life such a chair should have two covers, the top one made of fabric with water-repellent impregnation.

Buying standard garden furniture is not the most approved approach to landscaping on our portal: “Everything is kind of faceless, and the prices are not encouraging.” Ordering something unique, or even better, creating this unique thing with your own hands, or, as a last resort, repeating the idea of ​​a well-known manufacturer on a budget - this is FORUMHOUSE-style.

Irrena User FORUMHOUSE

If you take a tree in your hands and your soul sings, then who cares what they sell in megamarkets.

You shouldn’t neglect sales, especially when it comes to a recreation area in a small area.

So, skissa At a sale she bought an extendable garden table with a hole for an umbrella made of eucalyptus (3,000 rubles) and a eucalyptus table and two chairs for 2,000. She believes that even if she had made this furniture from pine with her own hands, it would have cost more.

It makes sense to order furniture when you need one hundred percent exclusive, something very unusual, and, accordingly, very expensive.

But this simple set of tables and benches, now sold on every corner, is simply a sin to buy - according to the calculations of the portal’s participants, buying boards, screws, impregnation and protective composition is much cheaper.

Yacht varnish – no the best option for outdoor products, it is better to treat them in 2-3 layers with a protective composition like “pinotex, biotex” and the like.

This product is the son of a FORUMHOUSE member OnlyOn manufactured under his direction and according to his drawing.

OnlyOn User FORUMHOUSE

It’s a pity to put such beauty on damp ground, so my son decided to build a “bed”: four columns of logs, a frame of four bars, and a flooring on top. Painted it with floor paint. It turned out well.

Then it doesn’t want it to rain, so it will roll downhill into construction.

Here's how to take this store-bought table idea further:

Fyi I made it from the material left over from the construction of the gazebo, made it more massive and aged it.

legolas16 developed the idea by adding a wooden canopy-roof to the table with benches.

Store-bought or home-made furniture for small area rest on the site should be, according to a survey conducted on our portal, comfortable, easy to carry, resistant to rot, durable, strong, easy to clean, “and no curls for ease of repainting.” The design is like this chair.

How to arrange a relaxation area with furniture

After construction at a FORUMHOUSE member Snegoff What remained were pallets conditionally suitable for the production of snakes, from which two armchairs and a two-seater sofa were made - an excellent place to relax in the country.

Snegoff User FORUMHOUSE

The pallet was cut in half along the boards into the base and back. For the chairs, another third was sawn across. I cleaned the blanks with a brush to remove dirt, rot and flash. I assembled everything with screws, using an inch board for strapping. The finished chairs and sofa are covered with biotex in two layers.

None of the family members expected that the result would inspire further investment in this project to improve the quality of suburban life. But furniture foam rubber (60 mm) and fabric for covers were purchased. The most expensive item in pillows with removable zippered covers was foam rubber.

Relaxation areas in the garden

The photographs with furniture made from pallets show that the site is paved with old brick, which was also left over from the construction site. This coating will not serve for a very long time, but in the future the site will still be planned and remodeled, but for now “At least they decided to spend the season like decent people.” The turf was removed from the future recreation area at the dacha, since the area has a slope, the area was leveled and a leveling layer of sand was made. The first rows of bricks were laid along the cord. The wide seams are explained by the depressing geometry of the brick: it simply would not fit end-to-end. The seams were covered with gartzovka (a mixture of lime and sand) left over from the finishing work. .

Crazy posted it on my summer cottage “red square made of clay bricks and quartzite paving stones».

Crazy User FORUMHOUSE

The scheme is standard: we dig a hole along the contour, down the film, 30 cm of sand and compact it. Then the curb is covered with cement, and the inside is paved with bricks.

As a result, thanks to this design, a small recreation area on the red platform under an airy canopy under pine trees, on which only a tea table can fit, will create exactly the “relaxing”, serene mood needed after working in the garden.

U nency the area for the table, benches and barbecue (6x3 m) is made from waste logs. The logs for its arrangement were sawn into segments 25 centimeters high. The saw cuts, treated to protect against rotting with used mineral machine oil, were installed on a sand bed and compacted with sand and water. The project was completed in six days practically “with one hand.” A small pit was dug with a small excavator. At the initial stage, this idea caused bewilderment, irony and laughter among everyone, including workers and neighbors. Now everyone liked the site. When lawn grass is planted between the round logs, it will be even better. There are options to fill the gaps with small crushed stone or screenings.

nency User FORUMHOUSE

I don’t claim credit for my creation, but tiles, etc. I'm tired of it in Moscow. Moreover, the plot is forested; urbanizing a piece of forest is also not the best option.

If the construction of something more or less stationary in a recreation area at a summer cottage absolutely seems like a waste of time and money, you can get by with a natural grass covering. The only thing is that the grass should be as resistant to trampling as possible: meadow bluegrass, meadow fescue, etc. are suitable. In the recreation area, the lawn is mowed every two weeks, or even more often.

Another option for a small area is to line it with turf. With regular watering, the grass will take root fairly quickly.

FORUMHOUSE users have long been using FORUMHOUSE as a covering for recreational areas. In addition to strength, the advantage of this material is that it can not be firmly fixed, but removed for the winter or if necessary.

Mobile grill

If the recreation area on a private plot does not have a stationary fireplace, there are many ways out of this situation, especially since a mobile grill on the edge of the garden can bring no less joy than a luxurious stove.

lme1979 I made a grill from a gas cylinder.

lme1979 User FORUMHOUSE

You cut it in half lengthwise with a grinder, weld the four supports, and the grill is ready. And it just fits into the trunk of the car.

Here's how you can improve such a grill (done Pilligrimxxl):

Uncle Vova I made a round country grill with a diameter of 0.5 meters. It turned out “unexpectedly cool, to the surprise of the neighbors.” And just sit by the fire, bake meat and vegetables on the grill, and put a cauldron or frying pan.

Or here good idea- tandoor made from flower pots. Invented and brought to life sandrovich. How to make it is clear from the photo.

Patio

awnings for the garden

Open area

A summer cottage differs from a standard apartment in the city in that when people arrive there, they spend most of their time outdoors, doing gardening or relaxing.

Be sure to decorate the fence and walls of the house.

The use of the fence and the facade itself when creating original compositions is somehow always forgotten. Not only will the use of their vertical areas free up space on the site for something more necessary and useful, but it will also significantly decorate the yard.


Original vertical gardening will not only decorate the facade of the house, but also provide greenery.


These vertical green walls can be used to enclose both a recreation area and a children's playground.

An exceptional interior element that is ideal for any home is a rocking chair. It will always give you comfort and inspiration. After all, in it you can not only comfortably rest and relax after tiring work on the site, but also read a book or do handicrafts.



You can make a rocking chair yourself.

If the family budget does not allow you to purchase a wicker chair, in this case, ingenuity and creative thinking will again help out. Use recycled materials - a cable reel or an old barrel.

8. Lighting


Skillful lighting will add mystery and romance.

Everyone knows that even bare walls or trees can be turned into a luxurious castle or even a ship with the help of skillfully designed lighting. The cottage is no exception; with the help of lighting you can create an incredibly magical environment. If you decorate a gazebo or area under a canopy with a regular LED strip, the effect in the evening will be amazing.

An outdoor shower is the first necessity at the dacha.

That's probably it. the most necessary and important invention of mankind. And at the dacha, in general, you can’t do without it, because how nice it is on a hot summer day to rinse yourself under some water heated by the sun.


Such a shower will bring joy not only to children.

Friends, today I want to introduce you to the ideas of various recreation areas in the country. The selection includes both budget and high-cost options. In short, today we’ll talk about the most important thing at our dacha! After all, it is precisely for the opportunity to fully relax that we go out of town.

Comfort of a small space

Relaxation corners at your dacha may be small, but still quite comfortable. Sometimes even a table and two chairs placed on the lawn next to the house will create a relaxed atmosphere of relaxation and summer mood. Photo: Dimasik_sh/Shutterstock

Circular patio with dry stone fountain

The original idea of ​​a recreation area can be realized by you if you design a paved area with a so-called dry fountain. Under the stones there is a container for collecting water with a pump. On top there is mesh and stones. You can build a pergola or canopy over the patio. Place chairs and enjoy the murmur of water.

Outdoor room idea

A truly stylish space can be achieved by decorating the patio with synthetic wicker furniture that is not afraid of moisture. Naturally, pillows should be brought under the roof at night. Your guests will appreciate the opportunity to spend a warm evening outdoors in the lap of nature. Photo: Artazum/Shutterstock

Original gazebo with mosquito nets

Unfortunately, in many regions in the summer it is simply impossible to be outside due to the abundance of mosquitoes. In this case, a gazebo with mosquito nets installed in the window openings would be a good solution. Fresh air will flow in, and any living creatures will not disturb your rest.

Wooden terrace with pergola

You can build such a wooden terrace for relaxation in your backyard, overlooking the garden. To protect from the sun, you can build a pergola and plant grapes on it.

Relaxation area idea for sloping areas

If your site has a slope, then you can choose either to place the seating area on a hill, or below, where it is cooler. If the first option is more suitable for northern regions, then the idea of ​​placing a patio below is the best solution for southern regions. Photo: imging/Shutterstock

Equipped gazebo pergola

This small gazebo also serves as a pergola for climbing plants. Performing a double function, the building can also be used as a rest area during your gardening work.

Open kitchen in the barbecue area

Outdoor patios often require cooking, frying, etc. Therefore, it has now become fashionable to create small kitchens outdoors or under a canopy. The idea is very convenient, because in this case you don’t have to run to the main kitchen every time to bring or cut something. Photo: Ozgur Coskun/Shutterstock

Patio on the country terrace

By making the terrace an extension of your country house you will benefit in the sense that all the necessary premises, including the kitchen, will be in walking distance and you won't have to create another summer kitchen in the garden. Photo: Santiago Cornejo/Shutterstock

Small portable grill

In some cases, a small equipped grill can also serve as a table at the same time. The rest area itself in this case is made on a platform next to a pond. Such solutions are quite accessible in the North-West, where there are an abundance of small lakes.

A place equipped with a barbecue for summer holidays

Once again I would like to note that equipping a stationary grill or barbecue on the patio is a very practical solution. In this case, you will always have the opportunity to immediately start cooking food, without thinking about where and how to place it all. Photo: Dimasik/Shutterstock

Covered gazebo without walls

If the main task is protection from the sun, in an area with a hot climate, then the presence of walls will even interfere, as it will interfere with the free flow of air and natural cooling of the space.

Relaxation corner under an awning

Sometimes even a simple awning stretched over the patio will provide good protection from the sun, especially if you decide to have lunch outdoors on a sunny summer day. Photo: Krista Abel/Shutterstock

High borders of flower beds as a relaxation corner in the country

In some cases, even wide borders of flower beds can serve as a temporary, but quite comfortable corner for relaxation. Having the opportunity to relax somewhere in the depths of your garden is a very good idea.

Pergola gazebo as a place to relax

You can create privacy with the help of pergolas, designed in the form of a gazebo, with a terrace or platform. Over the summer, your climbing plants will hide from prying eyes everything that happens inside the building. Photo: abimages/Shutterstock

Recreation area with brick fireplace

Every man loves fire, a bonfire, and, of course, the company of old friends. By building a round brick fireplace in your dacha, you can invite friends over for the weekend, and, chatting by the fire in the evening, truly feel complete understanding and support.

Outdoor bathroom idea

An original idea for those who love swimming pools and just taking baths. You can place a container for relaxation on the terrace. This could be, for example, a bathtub brought from an apartment. Having filled it with water at a comfortable temperature, you can relax and unwind. Photo: Santiago Cornejo/Shutterstock

Traditional summerhouses

And, of course, let’s not forget about the traditional options for recreation areas in the form of gazebos, various shapes. In the photo we see the hexagonal design of a country gazebo, in which you can gather with a group and have a good time.

Gazebo - canopy with bar counters

An original solution could be to build a canopy gazebo with a grill. Guests are seated along the bar counters on both sides of the structure.

Open porch as a relaxation area

An open porch can also become great place country holiday. At the same time, it is not at all necessary to build something in the garden; if your porch completely suits you, then you can’t think of a better solution. Photo: imging/Shutterstock

Pergola idea for climbing plants

Climbing large-leaved plants, now I mean grapes, can cover a pergola well in one season. Of course, the vine must be mature, otherwise you will need several seasons. Therefore, if you already have a grape bush on your site, I would recommend building a pergola next to the vine.

Waterfall and pond in the recreation area at the dacha

Separately, I would like to say that when building a recreation area, it is recommended to immediately think through the elements of relaxation - a waterfall with a pond or a fountain. Photo: JPL Designs/Shutterstock

Decorative elements in relaxation corners

The presence of bright accents on your patio will create a unique cozy ambience. Pillows, ottomans, bedspreads and rugs made of synthetics will not deteriorate in one season; they will be just as rich in color and eye-catching. Photo: Photographee/Shutterstock
