However, in some cases, the presence of beds, bushes and trees on the site can spoil the appearance of the site. In such cases, the owners of the summer cottage, without realizing it, hide the facade of the wonderful house behind the thickets. Sometimes playgrounds are erected in front of the house, which can be a good option, since this kind of area with slides and a sandbox does not cover the facade of the house.

If desired, you can organize just an interesting and attractive landscape, which would consist of a garden with a mini-waterfall or other objects in oriental style. Decor elements of this kind can look great in a country area. small size as well as in large areas.
