Turn your gazebo into a ‘sun shelter’ by furnishing it with garden furniture, like this charming wicker sofa set. Complete the ambience by hanging solar-powered lantern string lights. You’ve created an inviting haven for memorable get-togethers right in your backyard!
2. Gazebo and BBQ house in one
Looking for functional and practical wooden gazebo ideas? Then look no further than this concept! Even a pop-up gazebo can serve when paired with wooden raised decking and your cherished BBQ.
Take a cue from the image below. A small dining set would fit while still leaving ample space for the grill nestled in the corner. Modify your design to suit the dimensions of your gazebo and decking, and make the most of it!
3. Freestanding but with elegance
A freestanding gazebo doesn’t have to be plain. Get it in action by adding a furniture of your choice. Make sure the set offers comfort and can withstand the harsh outdoor elements. Hang draped curtains for added shade and privacy. Display bright potted flowers for a pop of colour to infuse the space with charm.
4. Inflatable hot tub setup
Inflatable tubs have become increasingly popular in the UK. Pairing these with wooden gazebos can provide a picturesque retreat for relaxation. Position the tub within the gazebo for privacy and protection from the elements. Accessorise with comfortable seating and ambient outdoor lighting to create a tranquil oasis.
5. Patio kitchen and living room
Spend summer evenings in your wooden gazebo that combines a kitchen and living area. This idea gives you a space where you can cook tasty meals while hanging out on a comfy couch nearby. It’s like bringing the comfort of home into your garden! Consider adding an electric heater for warmth and cosiness during cooler nights.
6. Playhouse for kids
Take this chance to create something for your children in your own backyard. Have a look at this garden gazebo transformed into a kid’s playhouse! Add a swing and slide to complete the look. Such additions will surely provide endless hours of joy for your little ones.
