Gardens are fantastic spaces for a diverse range of activities. You can customise your outdoor space to suit your needs, no matter what you’d like to use your space for. Looking for a quiet area to practice mindfulness in peace? Perhaps a small allotment you can tend to. Want to spend time with your friends and catch up over the weekend? Why not add some outdoor furniture to make your outdoor space into a hosting area.
One of the best additions you can add to your outdoor space to take it to the next level is a veranda. Verandas let you make the most out of your outdoor space; come rain or shine, day or night, with a veranda you can enjoy it all!
One benefit of verandas is that they are incredibly diverse – even more so than most people may think! Verandas can be utilised in all manner of ways to make your garden perfect.
What can you use a veranda for?
1. Outdoor dining area
Outdoor dining is a very pleasant novelty – whether you’re hosting a dinner party or just shaking up your cosy family dinners, a veranda gives you a space to comfortably sit and enjoy the fresh air as you dine, all while keeping you sheltered from the rain in the autumn and winter months and any harmful UV rays in summer and spring.
2. BBQs
With a veranda, you can enjoy your barbeque come rain or shine! A veranda gives your guests the option to sit in the sun or the shade, and also offers emergency shelter should it start to rain (as it so often does here in the UK!)
3. Hot tub shelter
You may not know it, but verandas can also make pretty great hot tub shelters! The great thing about hot tubs is that they can be used all year round, and with a veranda shelter, you can relax and luxuriate in your hot tub no matter the weather!
4. Porch
Verandas naturally create a transitional period between your house and your outdoor space; not quite inside, but not quite outside either! This creates the perfect area for removing muddy shoes and outerwear before entering the house.
These are just a few of the many benefits of adding a veranda to your property. Whilst they’re beautiful and great aesthetic additions for a property, they also serve a more practical focus. We hope that this blog will encourage to use a veranda so you can take your outdoor space to the next level!
