While most pergolas use a uniform finish throughout, this example uses two different finishes to create a romantic, French vintage look to match the general style of the garden. It has solid teakwood raised platform base & matching trellis for the top area of the pergola. This gorgeous fir wood pergola kit is simple, compact and is quite spacious. Unlike most pergolas, this one has an arched or rounded top, making its “ceiling” higher and therefore making it appear more spacious. The top does not have a fabric or polycarbonate, but it does have diagonal slats of wood for a subtle sun shade/filter during sunny days. Geometric Design

This patio pergola has a semi-indoor, semi-outdoor design principle as the area is adequately protected from the weather & elements, yet keep some areas open & transparent, allowing you to view the garden and the sky as if you were complete outdoor.Its double-roof design allows for plenty of light and fresh air in the structure. And those who are planning to bring it with them to their next camping trip or tailgate will be pleased to know it weighs just 50 pounds and comes with a carrying bag. Using weathered solid walnut, this large patio area has a very open feel despite having its top almost complete covered with wood slats. This pergola is covered with an outdoor sunscreen material which filters the sunlight and allows a certain percentage of light to pass-through, so that you still get to enjoy the sun but without having to suffer from overexposure. Garden Pergola with Seating This wood pergola is a quite high and spacious, giving is a very open and airy feel. Its wooden posts were fixed on the ground to keep it stable, and has wood slats on top to keep it nice and shady during sunny days. It was wired with electrical conduit to hang string lights for night time entertaining and enjoyment. Fire Pit Pergola This area was framed with a solid wood pergola which features 2 square pergolas and a “hallway” which uses the two pergolas on each of its ends as its base/support. The wood used are salvaged wood pieces so it has a very rough and weathered appeal to it the looks perfect with the natural style pool. Pathway Pergola

The pergola does not serve as a sun shield or cover, as the large trees in the garden already does the job. However, the simple pergola helps emphasize the area, and also provides a place to hang the fairy garden lights, making the area look more romantic at night. Sloped and Attached to House This type is especially ideal if you’re placing furniture pieces under the the pergola as this helps with the upkeep of the outdoor furniture pieces and will also keep the elements away when you relax in the area.Going for a very utilitarian and tropical-inspired look, instead of using machine-cut wood, this pergola keeps the natural shape of the small wood trunks to create this design. While soft-top gazebos definitely do not last as long as hard-top options, they are still a great budget-friendly patio addition. "If you are looking for a short-term solution, a soft-top gazebo may be the way to go due to its low cost-effective prices and installation simplicity," says Field. The cedar legs have a beautifully natural stained finish that blends in seamlessly with other wooden outdoor furniture. This wooden structure is pre-stained to help it stand up to rain or sun damage over time. The aluminum roof ensures that no rain or sun can seep under the gazebo, so you feel completely protected no matter the weather, which is not the case with a soft-top option. Sunday Walk and the rediscovered Church Gill Walk were created by William Waldorf Astor in a very different style to the formal areas of the Gardens. They follow the meandering stream in a circular walk that leads to Hever Church and would have been the route the family took to church each Sunday.
