Summer house
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A summer house has traditionally referred to a building or shelter used for relaxation in warm weather.[1] This would often take the form of a smaller building on the grounds of a larger one, but could also be built in a garden or park.
It can also refer to a second residence, usually located in the country, that provides a cool and relaxing home to live during the summer, such as a vacation property.
Especially in Scandinavia, sommerhus is applied to summer residences (as a second home), which rather than simple shelters can be larger dwellings such as cottages.[2]
