Kennels and runs outside..anyone any experience?

We're thinking of getting one - not for all the time, but times when we have friends round who are scared of the dog or certain times when I am busy (normally cooking dinner etc) and she goes into destructive mode.
We can't just let her out into the garden without supervision yet...she's nearly a year but we've only had her a couple of month so training is 'in progress'.
