Rabbits can be kept indoors or outside. They can make excellent house pets but you must protect your wiring and allow them regular access to the garden for exercise, food and sunlight. Rabbits are more susceptible to heat than cold and can easily die from heat stroke in their hutch on a hot day.
Rabbits are very social animals and it is nice for them to have the companionship of another rabbit, but in the wild only a female and a male live together. Two males together will fight as will two un-neutered females. If you plan to get more than one rabbit it is important to think carefully about which sex to get and whether to get them neutered at the vets. Castration and spaying is strongly recommended from the age of 4 months for health and social reasons.
