One of the most important things in life is to have a home that’s comfortable for you and that you feel relaxed in. If you live in a house and have the option of a garden – even better. Outdoor space in front (or behind) your house is equally important, as it not only provides you with some extra beauty, but you can use it as a unique escape from time to time.

Investing in making your garden a very special place and having an oasis just a couple of steps away, where you could go anytime you want to be in nature is a great idea.

4 Ways to Create a Backyard Getaway

  1. Picture Perfect Patio

The first thing that you should have in your backyard getaway is an excellent patio. It should be welcoming, warm and comfortable, as you will probably be spending a lot of time sitting there, sipping drinks and chatting with your friends.

There are many ways in which you could redecorate your patio. For example, you can make it into a sort of an outdoor living room, placing nice, minimalistic furniture and equipping it with a good coffee table and a bunch of colorful cushions.

Another way is to make it into a sort of an al fresco dining room, where you will spend hot summer nights eating barbecue with your special someone, your family or your friends. Bear in mind that a patio is an excellent place where you could host all your dinner parties, provided the weather is nice, of course.

  1. Handy Outdoor Kitchen

Another extension that you could consider, especially if you’re about to make a patio with a dining table, is a small outdoor kitchen where you will be able to make drinks and some types of food. Remember that you don’t have to go big here – nobody is expecting you to make the same kitchen as you have inside your home. However, make sure that you have your grill installed, as this will be the thing you will be using the most.

People in Australia really do pay attention to this stuff, and they came up with an excellent idea. Namely, if you want to have a small paradise in your backyard without any need to actually get into the house (in order to use the bathroom or the kitchen), you can always opt for a super cute granny flat by the great Granny Flats Builders in Sydney.

These granny flats are not only great for the purpose of someone living or spending a couple of days there; they will also look amazing in your backyard and be super handy.

  1. Accessorize

You definitely can’t make your backyard a getaway if you don’t accessorize it the way you want to. We’re not only talking about installing a grill or a granny house or adding good furniture. We’re talking about the small things that will make or break any backyard, such as lamps, extra plants or outdoor rugs that will give your backyard that extra relaxing feeling.

Don’t forget to add lights in your outdoor area, which will give your backyard a romantic and homey feeling and warm ambiance. There are so many ways in which you can style your backyard, and some of them are even DIY. Finally, even though you’re accessorizing your backyard and you probably have a lot of flowers – don’t forget to make it even richer by adding a couple of excellent plants that are placed in cute pots that match well with your backyard.

  1. Make Shady Spots

Depending on the type of patio that you want, you can consider making a couple more shady spots for relaxation. Let’s assume that you installed a grill and a dining table in your patio (which, of course, has plenty of shade); you need a place where you will be extremely comfortable while reading a book or even taking a nap.

That is why creating a lounge area in your backyard is a great idea. Put several lazy bags or even a couch, rug and a table that you don’t need in your house anymore, and there you go. You can opt to make this small oasis under a tree where you will have a lot of shade or consider getting yourself a big parasol that will protect you from the summer sun.

Having a backyard is a great asset that many people lack, so you should definitely use all its perks. You will see how much time you will be spending there once you make an oasis out of it. It’s an excellent escape during the warm months of the year where you will feel extremely relaxed and refreshed.
