And the most natural and comfortable place will be a sleeping place. A double bed can be placed along the central axis of the room, and single beds can be placed against the walls.

If the house has a lot of space, then it makes sense to make two bedrooms. Surely city friends come to visit the dacha owners, and few will refuse to spend the night at the dacha. This is where the second bedroom comes in handy.

Other layout options

A large house has a large and spacious attic. It can already be turned into an attic. If there is a need, then the total area can be zoned. Figure 9 shows a bedroom adjacent to a small shower room.

In one area, you can arrange a dressing room. At the dacha there is also a lot of various clothes, and you often have to change clothes. Something is taken out of the city.

You can drag old furniture into this dressing room, for example, grandma's dresser or mother's wardrobe. Make a lot of shelves and hangers there. And the main thing is good lighting. And the walls should be light.
