The Man Cave (or men’s caves) are a place in the house intended for the use and enjoyment of it. They usually have common elements, such as a small bar or cellar, a resting place where you can watch television and a recreational area with billiards, table football, darts, etc. Do you need ideas to make your Man Cave? You’re in luck, because we are going to run through some ideas. You don’t need a lot of money to make this little space cool.

The Man Caves by definition are places very to the taste of men, this can bring some inconvenience in living with your family. It is good that before starting your cave for men you discuss it with them. Once the issue has been agreed with your family, we can start with the first question we have to ask ourselves: Where are we going to install our cave? Depending on the size of our house we have several options. The most common places for a man cave are the garage, the basement, the attic or attic or any spare room in our home. Our recommendation is that when choosing the place we take into account the noise we are going to make, the space of the room and the ease of accessing the site. Well, we have already thought about where we are going to create our personal space, now it’s time to get a little inspiration with some basic ideas to make ourselves our man cave. Will you use it to watch TV, maybe play around with the best sportsbooks apps or make music perhaps. There will definitely be a reason why you want to make this place your haven. So get thinking! Let’s look at some inspiration!
Men’s Cave Tickets: The Magic Begins
Let’s start at the entrance to our cave! We can make a standard entrance with a normal door or we can give it a personal and daring touch. We warn you that from now on, you will want to have everything that we are going to teach you. Who has not dreamed of having a secret door to their exclusive room? Who would have thought that behind that discreet painting-poster-movie poster would be the entrance to our man cave? We have more options such as putting a shelf to hide the entrance of an Indiana Jones movie or integrating the basement entrance with the living room floor. Of course, all this is just an inspiration and the limit will be set by our imagination. If you are a handyman, you can even devise a mechanism in which you have to pull a decorative torch to enter the temple! Make it mystical and fun, so that you and all your friends want to come over!
The bar or the cellar of the Man Cave
We arrive at one of the important parts which is of course the winery or bar. It is very likely that the use that we want to give to our cave is as a meeting area with friends to spend an afternoon, evening or night. To do this, we must have everything prepared so that our guests do not go thirsty. The size of the bar in our Man Cave will depend on the global space we have. We will need a bar counter, a tap with a drain, a bottle rack and a refrigerator. In addition to this, we can opt for a small, more traditional mini-bar or mini-pub, adorned with some LEDs or neons. The bar can even have a theme too, such as an Irish themed bar or maybe a western saloon. You can add elements of these styles such as cowboy hats or Irish Guinness glasses that add an extra special touch and make you feel as if you’re truly there!
Football in our men’s cave
Do you love Football or any type of sports? In this case, a large TV or maybe a flatscreen TV to enjoy your sports on. Do you have space to mount it on a wall or will you place it on a table? If there is not much space, you can use a coffee table-football table like the one we are going to see next. The pool table, another charming aspect that will keep you entertained for hours on end! A pool table is a great addition, or perhaps a dart board. Not only is it fun, but can add to your skillset. If the space is small but sufficient, we can even choose something more exciting like ping-pong tables. If, on the other hand, we are lucky enough to have space for the table, you should spare no expense to find the pool table that fits perfectly.
Take care of even the smallest details
So far we have reviewed the basic elements. You can choose to take the step of having a personal corner, but you also want to make it unique to you and make it a place to escape the kids! We are going to give that touch with the details, details that reflect our tastes without fear of becoming freaky. Something as simple as a small wooden lever painted with metallic primer will give our man cave that industrial-steampunk touch that is so fashionable these days. How about secret hiding places? This will ensure that even your kids or other friends won’t be able to find your little hiding spots. How about a secret hiding place for alcohol inside a fire extinguisher. Or perhaps a safe behind a photo.
At this point, all our friends will envy us for the amazing man cave you’ve created and you’ll most certainly make an incredible place to hang out. Sometimes, it’s good to get away. Take time for yourself, especially as a dad. This way you can relax and recharge! Don’t be
