There's a front yard with a set of tables and chairs, where you can enjoy meals together or savor a cup of tea or coffee while chatting. The veranda is also equipped with a small set of chairs and a lamp, where you can read, chill, or strike those 'deep' poses for photos without worrying about the wind or rain.
