End of Summer Party? Why a Grillkota extends outdoor entertaining into autumn
The evenings are getting cooler, the garden lights are coming on earlier, and yet – no one really wants summer to end. If you love gathering friends and family for food, drinks, and laughter, you don’t have to pack away the party just because September has arrived. Instead you can organise an end of summer party in a Scandinavian BBQ hut (also known as a grillkota). It is the perfect way to extend your outdoor entertaining well into autumn (and beyond) and here are 4 reasons why.
1. Outdoor Living, The Scandinavian Way
In Scandinavia, long winters and cool evenings have never stopped people from enjoying the outdoors. The traditional grillkota was designed as a cozy retreat where families could gather around an open fire to cook, share stories, and stay warm – no matter the weather. Bringing that same tradition to your UK garden means you can host an end of summer party in September… and still keep using your hut in December.

2. Shelter From the Chill (But Keep the Garden Vibes)
An outdoor kitchen is a wonderful addition to a home, but it can be impractical once the weather turns. A BBQ hut combines the best of both worlds: the joy of cooking and dining outdoors, with the warmth and shelter of a snug timber cabin. Add fairy lights or lanterns outside, and you’ll still feel the buzz of the garden while everyone stays toasty inside.

3. The Perfect Party Atmosphere
The built-in central fireplace in our Scandi Huts makes it easy to cook, grill, or simply light a fire for ambiance. Imagine:
- Grilling skewers while friends gather around the fire pit.
- Serving hot drinks and autumnal dishes (think mulled cider, roasted chestnuts, or even a hearty stew).
- Guests relaxing on benches with cushions and blankets while the flames crackle.
Suddenly, your end-of-summer party feels like the start of a whole new season of entertaining.

4. A Year-Round Garden Escape
The beauty of a Scandinavian BBQ hut is that it’s not just for one season. Once you’ve hosted your September gathering, you’ll find plenty of excuses to keep using it:
- October: A cozy autumn escape, perfect for Halloween nights or Bonfire Night parties.
- November: A private retreat for Sunday roasts cooked over fire.
- December: The ultimate Christmas garden tradition – mulled wine around the fire.
