No, I've not misspelt it! A Lapa from South Africa could be just the thing for your garden, giving you the perfect amount of shade and protection from the elements and a beautiful space for sitting, entertaining or even working on your laptop. How's that for garden lifestyle?
Traditionally in South Africa, these gorgeous thatched open timber-sided buildings add protection from the searing heat and are made from indigenous wood and thatch. Of course the open-sided nature has come into fashion more in recent years, but you must admit that they make a change from the more acknowledged garden shed!
By the way Lapa is pronounced "Larpa".
If you like the idea of one of these attractive buildings, why not contact The Lapa Company in Kent, who will create a lapa especially for you and the best thing is that our elegant furniture will look perfect with them!
I have to admit that I would not have thought when I started this blog that South Africa would feature so highly! One of my other passions in life is South Africa. Take a look at Tailor Made South Africa Travel for great ideas on how to go and see the lapa in the home of its birth.
