For all the lucky having a house and a small field, offer a pergola! It has the advantage of being cheaper than a conservatory, and awfully well dressed home. The idea is more original. Enjoy a weekend or your husband / wife is not there, the construction is very fast. Imagine his surprise return!
A pergola construction is a small garden which is home to the rain. She can gently shade the terrace, to grow climbing plants ... while leaving completely open terrace.
