In some cases, it is considered advisable to combine a pair of “gazebo and bathhouse” into one complex. This is especially true for owners of small summer cottages, where every square meter is of high value. Therefore, today we will look at the variety of structures that combine a gazebo and a bathhouse under one roof.
There are quite a lot of options for implementing this project. We will dwell on each of them little by little, show photographs, and also describe the main pros and cons of this approach. Towards the end of the publication we will show prices and drawings of finished projects.

Combining a bathhouse and a gazebo: the advantages of such structures for relaxation
The main reason why a sauna with a gazebo is gaining popularity is its ease of use, because relaxing in steam rooms most often involves a long feast and enjoying communication with friends and family. If at the exit from the bathhouse there is a gazebo and a barbecue oven, guests and hosts can freely sit down for a feast without the need to move around the area.
The construction of a gazebo bath on a single foundation, with a common roof, will speed up the construction process and also save money for the owners. If necessary, electricity and water supply are also provided to the gazebo, which increases the level of comfort. You can also equip a gazebo with a swimming pool, where you can relax either after a steam room or just on a hot day.

Owners of small plots will save valuable space, because a single design of a bathhouse with a gazebo under one roof takes up less space than the arrangement of three separate buildings. In addition, the zoning of the territory is simplified, because it is easier to comfortably locate one building than several.
The visual characteristics of the single complex will also please the owners of the site: all buildings are decorated in a common style, the gazebo adjoins the bathhouse harmoniously. A huge selection of finishing materials allows you to stylize the structure to your liking.
During the warm season, a summer kitchen is installed on the territory of the gazebo, and the spacious living room in the bathhouse is used as a room for overnight guests.
The technological feature of a bathhouse with a summer kitchen and barbecue is a high level of humidity, which negatively affects the building. The solution to the problem is professional installation of a ventilation system that will ensure the required level of air exchange in the premises. Connoisseurs of wooden bath complexes fear the fire hazard of the premises, while high-quality impregnation at the construction stage reduces the level of threat to zero.
At the same time, one can be convinced that the gazebo attached to the bathhouse, the photo of which is posted below, looks really harmonious, the structure turns out to be complete.

How to choose the right construction option
Depending on the method of connecting the bathhouse, gazebo and barbecue area, several standard projects are distinguished.
A bathhouse with a gazebo and barbecue, connected by a covered walkway, is built on a single foundation. This design is spacious, suitable for those who like to receive guests, and also allows you to set up a summer kitchen near the bathhouse complex. This solution is costly, since the rafter system on which the roof rests has different levels and angles of inclination, which complicates the work.

A bathhouse with an open gazebo and barbecue located under one roof is a more affordable and compact option for relaxation. If you glaze the gazebo, you can stay in it not only in summer - this will create a space for relaxation all year round. Externally, this structure resembles a house with a veranda, so it is often used to accommodate guests.

The most popular are complexes united by a gable roof: the design is compact, roomy, aesthetic, and includes not only a recreation room: projects of a bathhouse with a utility unit under one roof are also in demand.
Type of gazebo - open or closed
The structure of the gazebo can be open, semi-open and closed. The second and third types have approximately the same number of pros and cons, but the first option is slightly inferior to them. Open gazebos look like a canopy on several supporting pillars; they can look like pergolas or open terraces. They are equipped with side posts with balusters and railings, and sometimes they do without these elements. Such verandas are sometimes decorated with openwork carved shapes. The semi-open version looks like a pavilion with one or maximum two open sides. The terrace is protected from the wind, while at the same time remaining in contact with nature. The semi-open type will hide from the scorching sun and rain. Closed gazebos provide additional comfort options. Covered terraces are used all year round as dining and relaxation areas. They can also provide heating and implement interesting design ideas. Panoramic windows, in turn, will provide a visual connection with nature.
Choosing the location of a bathhouse with a terrace and a stove on the site
Before starting construction of the complex, it is necessary to select its location. Traditionally, summer cottages are divided into residential and economic zones, garden and vegetable garden areas, as well as recreational space, decorated to the taste of the owners.
A bathhouse with a gazebo and barbecue is an object for relaxation and receiving guests, so it is recommended to place it away from the residential and business areas so as not to interfere with the normal flow of life of the owners. For example, the smell of meat cooking in a gazebo can disturb children, and noisy feasts can disrupt a night's rest. The best option is a bathhouse project with a gazebo under one roof, surrounded by a garden and located near the entrance to the site. If the main structure is already ready, you can later place a gazebo near the bathhouse, but at the design stage it will be more logical to combine everything.

Owners of spacious plots of land choose full-fledged kitchen complexes that allow them to prepare delicious meals, and turn a bathhouse with a gazebo and barbecue into a separate guest house. If the size of the plot is modest, it is advisable to pay attention to two-story buildings, where an attic is built above the bathhouse. Such options save a lot of space, while combining a recreation area and an outbuilding.
A corner bathhouse with a gazebo under one roof is a good solution for owners of miniature plots. The gazebo can be located closer to the entrance to the site, allowing guests to move freely without disturbing others.

Seasonal pools and sunbathing areas
Inflatable and frame (collapsible) models of swimming pools
- a great way to cool off in the summer heat! A budget option:
✅ for those who have just started arranging the territory
✅ for small garden plots
✅ for rented cottages
✅ take with you to the village))
Installation and maintenance are cheaper
capital options. The service life of inflatable pools is short: 1-5 seasons. Frame ones last longer; many models fit compactly into the trunk and can be used indoors and outdoors.
If you decide to use an outdoor pool, do not forget to disinfect the water with chemicals, filter and remove debris! If the container is small, just change the water. Standing water in an outdoor pool quickly deteriorates.
