If you are the owner summer cottage, then a guest house will not hurt you. After all, this small building will be used infrequently for receiving guests, and the rest of the time it can serve as an outbuilding, tool storage, or even a bathhouse. Moreover, even owning small area land, the house can be made more spacious by adding an attic. Standard and individual projects guest houses with a bathhouse or billiard room, attic or winter garden can be easily found on the Internet, but how to choose the right one, what criteria to use when choosing?

Project selection and budgeting

Following classical Russian traditions, many landowners order single- or two-story houses from rounded logs. The exterior of such a building fits perfectly into the landscape of the area, and the inside of the guest house can be decorated with the most modern materials. Typically, such a guest house project is always supplemented with the functions of a bathhouse, and this is very convenient - after all, the guests will leave, but the bathhouse will remain, and you can use it every day.

In practice, a guest house with a bathhouse is built more often than other projects, and even in a one-story building of such a house you can place not only a bathhouse, but also a billiard room, a kitchen, a living room and utility rooms. For example, on the plan two-story project, presented in the figure below, the house has not only a steam room in the bathhouse, but also a bathroom, a living room with a large hall, and a kitchen combined with the living room. On the second floor there are bedrooms, a balcony and a corridor. A wide porch for the entrance to the first floor and a comfortable porch will provide comfortable functionality for children and old people - there is enough space for them in the project.

In the vestibule on the ground floor there is a mini-boiler room, which works not only when using the bathhouse, but also for heating the entire house. And the last thing is a vast terrace, above which on the second floor there is an equally wide balcony. For summer holiday hard to find more convenient place so as not to leave the house and contemplate nature.

To implement the project guest house with a bathhouse or other additional functionality, you must first select it. The most popular, despite the fact that they are more expensive, are two-story wooden structures, on the ground floor of which there is usually a bathhouse and steam room, and on the second floor there is a relaxation room and other living quarters. This house has wonderful advantages:

  1. Two-story design saves space personal plot– a standard guest house with a bathhouse usually occupies 25-30 m2 total area on the ground;
  2. Saving family budget it is also obvious that the foundation is built on a much smaller scale, and, as you know, the construction of the foundation is 30-40% of construction estimate the whole house. In addition, the same savings occur during the construction of the roof and installation of the heating system;
  3. The comfort of using such a house is much higher, since all the premises are located in one building, and you do not need to go outside to get to the pool, billiard room or recreation room.

Before you start building a guest house, you need to specify its location on the site - this is required by the project and basic space saving. Without linking the project to a place on earth, you will not succeed. Designing and composing a bathhouse requires professional skills, so you will have to turn to architects, but in this case you will be able to contribute even in standard project your individual changes.

Tips for room layout:

  1. The first floor is traditionally allocated for a bathhouse or sauna with all the necessary utility rooms - a dressing room, a corridor, a shower room. The area of ​​these premises is calculated from the requirements of SNiP, which recommend allocating at least 3 m2 per person for convenient use of the functionality. The dressing room must provide space for storing firewood for at least one heating of the heater. The side of the stove that heats up more than the others should face the steam room, and the side with the place for loading fuel should face the corridor or dressing room. If the baths allow, here, on the ground floor, a shower or swimming pool, a bathroom and a relaxation room are installed;
  2. On the second floor you can arrange a billiard room or a recreation room, a bedroom, game room, etc. The flight of your imagination is not limited by anything here.

The construction estimate should contain approximately the following expense items:

  1. Construction of a foundation for a bathhouse - purchase of cement, sand, crushed stone, boards for formwork, transportation costs, etc.;
  2. Lumber for a house with a bathhouse: for the construction of a log house (logs, beams, frame), floors, ceilings, roofs and roofs, stairs, terraces, verandas, porches, interior partitions, etc.;
  3. Thermal insulating, waterproofing and vapor barrier materials - fiberglass, membrane, glassine, roofing felt, mineral wool, polystyrene foam, expanded polystyrene, etc.;
  4. Hardware and fittings: clamps, angles, plates, staples, nails, screws, anchors, turboprops;
  5. Windows and doors (preferably wooden, not plastic);
  6. Purchase or construction of a stove;
  7. Construction materials for laying utilities - water supply, sewerage, ventilation, electricity, communications;
  8. Finishing (internal and external) materials.

Preparatory work and foundation construction


The volume of excavation work will depend on the composition and properties of the soil, but usually projects of houses with a bathhouse involve the use of wood as the main material. building material, therefore, with such a small weight of the building, the foundation is made shallow, columnar or pile, but does not require the use of special equipment. Preparing the site for construction means that it must be leveled, cleared of debris and vegetation, and, if necessary, drainage or strengthened upper layer bulk layer of soil.

If your bathhouse will stand on a columnar foundation, then it is better to use concrete or asbestos-cement pipes and fill them with a concrete solution. The pillars are installed in the corners, parallel to the wall in 1 m increments, parallel to internal partitions in increments of 1.5 m. The pillars are waterproofed using roofing felt or hot bitumen, and installed in drilled (dug) wells on a sand cushion with a layer of up to 15 cm. Concrete is poured on top of the cushion with a layer of up to 20 cm, crushed stone of the middle fraction is poured with a layer of 120 cm , moisten it and compact it.

For a wooden guest house with or without a bathhouse, a base is needed that will protect the logs or timber walls from waterlogging and other atmospheric influences. To do this, they dig a trench 0.3 m deep, pour a 10-cm layer of sand on the bottom, and lay red brick between the pillars with a thickness the size of the pillars. As it grows, pieces of pipes are embedded into the masonry for the passage of communications - ventilation, sewerage, etc. The finished base is covered with hot bitumen, and roofing felt is glued on top, and so on - 2-3 layers.

A main drain is made under the location of the shower and/or bathroom, to which the drain from the steam room is connected. The sewage system for all water drainage points is made common - it can be a homemade or industrial septic tank, or cesspool made of concrete, brick, etc.

The wooden guest house bathhouse projects of which are shown above are being built on wooden grillage(logs) from timber with a section of 150 x 150 mm or 200 x 200 mm. A subfloor is laid on the logs, which is protected with a membrane vapor barrier, insulated, and the finishing floor is laid on it. In the shower room and steam room, the subfloor is made with an angle of inclination of 5 0 -7 0 towards the drain.


If the guest house is not built from timber or rounded logs, but from logs manual cutting, then such lumber should be impregnated with antiseptic and fire-retardant impregnations before the construction of the log house begins. The first, lower log, is taken larger in size than the others, and the first beam also swings. The corners of the log house can be fastened in different ways: “into a bowl” or “into a paw”. All inter-crown cracks are sealed with jute or tow; lovers of naturalistic design can recommend moss. The next step after installing the log house is the construction of interior partitions from timber or thick slats. All internal surfaces of the building are insulated and waterproofed, and decorative finishing material. It can be carriage or slats, veneered plywood or imitation wood valuable species.

Ceiling or interfloor covering, as well as the basis for rafter system terraces (see the figure above) are built from timber with a cross-section of no less than 150 x 100 mm. A floor made of 30-40 mm planed boards is attached to the top of the beam using nails or screws. The beams of the rafter system must be no less than 100 x 80 mm.

The base, rafters and ceiling are fastened with clamps and/or staples; a frame (lathing) is mounted on the rafters for fastening the roofing material. It is better to make the roof non-flammable, that is, not to use soft tiles and others like that roofing materials. Roof sheathing and ceiling protected from moisture inner layer hydro and vapor barrier material, a layer of heat insulation, decorated with clapboard or other materials.

Hotels and campsites built in the form of low-rise buildings of increased comfort, or also called guest houses, are a novelty for us, but the most beautiful architectural solutions and projects make us take a closer look at new buildings and wonder how and what such a miracle is built from. Two-thirds of guest house buildings are made of laminated veneer lumber; the cost is approximately half that of a similar building made of brick or foam concrete.

What is the secret to the success of the guest house idea?

Guest class buildings are new form hotel rooms. Instead of rooms in a stone box of a classic device management company A comfortable house is offered for temporary residence. Any guest house project made of laminated veneer lumber is focused on three main components:

Important! The last factor is often of decisive importance for guests. Therefore, guest house designs are almost always focused on creating and maintaining a virtual personal space.

Inside the house there is always a well-thought-out and planned environment that provides household needs without the need to involve service personnel or owners.

In these conditions, laminated veneer lumber guest house projects receive a tangible advantage. The material is very beautiful in any design, there is always a spirit in the room natural wood, and good machinability wooden material allows you to build a guest house of the most complex design.

The most interesting guest house projects

Mini cottages and small houses not only travel companies use it for temporary residence; many private houses have a garden or suburban area a guest house built by the owners according to their own design.

Among the many different styles of decorating a house made of laminated veneer lumber, a few can be highlighted:

  1. Scandinavian style building;
  2. Imitation of a cottage on the sea coast;
  3. Mountain and forest houses.

Important! Most guest house projects are aimed at creating a certain emotional background for the guest from staying or living in a room made of laminated veneer lumber.

Scandinavian houses

It is not surprising that initially the guest houses were almost entirely made of timber, imitating Finnish and Norwegian houses"metsästysmaja" for fishermen and hunters. Such buildings did not differ in special design, therefore Scandinavian style The guest house is restrained in colors and design, but is always built only from laminated veneer lumber.

Most often, such a house is built using classical technology, with a central entrance and a veranda. Roofs are designed only in gable form, with reinforced rafters and wind slats, giving the guest house a heavy, massive look.

Such buildings made of laminated veneer lumber have proven themselves well in numerous winter resorts, as they are oriented primarily towards severe winds and cold. Despite its discreet appearance, laminated veneer lumber provides excellent thermal insulation and high comfort. For the most part, the projects of such guest houses include living space at least 40 m2, which is comparable in comfort to an average hotel room.

For areas with a lot of precipitation in the form of rain and snow, the design of a classic Estonian house made of laminated veneer lumber is most often chosen.

The Scandinavian style of the guest house is copied by almost all manufacturers finished houses made of laminated veneer lumber, even if the building is not, in fact, a guest building.

Cottage style guest houses

Guest houses in the form of a cottage are the most beautiful and open. Most often this is a two-story structure made of laminated veneer lumber with huge windows and terraces.

The presence of a platform or terrace today is a mandatory attribute for guest houses designed for hot climates or long-term outdoor recreation.

In addition to the cottage, “hoko” projects are used for summer holidays in the form of massive cubic-shaped buildings with a window covering the entire wall. Guest houses in such designs are very suitable for mountainous and hilly areas. Similar projects popular for private country houses, since construction according to a simplified scheme allows you to use the guest house at the same time as a gazebo.

A building made of laminated veneer lumber can easily be turned even into a fishing or forest house, or a summer house for periodic trips to nature.

Often a guest house is built from lumber material according to the same projects and patterns as the main residential building. In this case, the guest building is practically indistinguishable from an ordinary dacha.

House made of laminated veneer lumber with a built-in sauna

Separately, it is necessary to recall guest complexes, in which, in addition to living quarters, there is a steam room and a billiard room under one roof. The use of laminated veneer lumber allows you to reduce the cost of construction and at the same time give the building a very attractive appearance. This category of houses made of laminated veneer lumber is gaining immense popularity as an alternative regular bath. Why build just one bathhouse, if in one guest house project you can combine several recreational facilities at once.

Such projects can be called guest houses of a new generation, in which there is all the infrastructure of a small hotel designed for a company of several people.

The layout of the guest house will be different from the layout of the main house. But in rare cases it can be similar if the house is used to receive relatives at any time of the year.

The guest house has a minimum set of premises, which means large area. As a rule, such houses are built one-story, less often two-story or with an attic. The set of premises will be as follows: a living room with a small kitchenette, one bedroom or no bedroom. As for the dining room, hallway and boiler room, there are none at all. Here you can place a sauna or a storage room with a separate entrance.

What size should the guest house be?

The area depends on the number of guests received and functional premises, which are planned in it. Let's consider several options for guest houses:

— A small one-story house with an area of ​​15–30 m2. In such a house you can accommodate no more than two rooms with a bathroom. It is suitable for three people and, as a rule, in the summer.

— Cottage area up to 50 m2. Such a house is more comfortable and suitable for living. all year round. It can accommodate up to six people. You can arrange a sauna.

- Attic or two-storey house area up to 50 m2. This house is more economical in terms of built-up area and more functional than the previous one. Its layout will be as follows: on the ground floor there is a living room with a kitchen, a bathroom and a sauna; on the second there are one or two bedrooms.

At the entrance to the guest house, it is necessary to provide a terrace of 10 m2 for relaxation and friendly meetings. On the terrace you can place a barbecue in the living room with a fireplace or stove. Fire always makes a home feel cozy and also increases the lifespan before the onset of cold weather.

Increasingly, customers are turning to us who are interested in guest house projects, both small ones for temporary residence of 1-2 people, and large ones: with a sauna, garage, attic. This is convenient when you need to comfortably accommodate relatives or friends who have come for the summer, without disturbing the established lifestyle and habits of the owners.

The common name often means something completely different in purpose and size. construction projects, they can be divided into two types.

    Large brick or frame buildings, one of our best projects— guest house No. 60-68 for 10 rooms with a separate entrance for each room. In this case, a motel is proposed for it, but it is also well suited for a country residence where there are many guests at the same time.

    Projects of small guest houses designed to accommodate one family, which can be built inexpensively. Often such a building combines two functions: there is a bathhouse on the first floor, and living rooms on the second.

In the south of the country, in the Krasnodar Territory and Crimea, houses of the first type are common; they are often used for renting out during the summer holidays. More often, such buildings are built from foam concrete (foam blocks), since it is more economical option compared to brick. An example of an object of the second type is project No. 12-41 in our catalog.

How to choose a guest house project

Regardless of what you plan to build: a guest mini-house or a private mini-hotel, when choosing a project you need to consider several points:

  • whether it will be designed for year-round operation - the choice of insulation and engineering structures depends on this;
  • level of comfort - this implies how many bathrooms and showers there should be, how water heating will be ensured;
  • What will be more economical - organizing autonomous communications, or connecting them to common system cottage

The internal layout, number of entrances, and arrangement of the surrounding area depend on the purpose of the building. For example, parking lots, recreation areas with a swimming pool and gazebos. Design of engineering systems is carried out on a separate order. The catalog presents basic projects to which necessary changes can be made. A standard set of documentation reduces the cost of construction. At the request of the customer, our architectural bureau is ready to develop exclusive option any level of difficulty.
