Montpellier
Ideally suited for parks, gardens and your backyard.
Inspired by the hot afternoons of Vermont's capital city, the Montpellier open air gazebo kit offers relief from the beating sun while letting in the cooling breeze. Spacious and elegant, it's the perfect destination to while away the hours, sipping wine, or dozing with a book in your lap. Its square roof is a handsome look not common in garden or patio gazebos, yet refreshingly welcoming. A gleaming copper cupola caps off this stellar design. Browse more in our favourites section!

Roof Assembly
The Montpellier garden gazebo roof increases in complexity as the size increases, below is the roof framing for the Montpellier. For smaller sizes, the size and number of components incorporated in the roof structure are reduced.

Floor Framing
Montpellier’s Summerwood gazebo floors are built with pressure treat framing. However, most Montpellier structures are assembled on existing floor platforms, like patio floors, so you can choose to omit the floor section altogether.
