Anyone with a keen interest in home improvements will have noticed that Garden Rooms have soared in popularity in recent years.
An increasing number of people are seeing the benefits of garden buildings and their ability to make more space for your life. But despite this increase in popularity many people still ask what is a Garden Room? Take a look at some of our frequently asked questions below.
What is a Garden Room?
Simply put, a Garden Room is a standalone garden building, finished with high quality, natural materials. They are classed as outbuildings and built to less than 2.5m in height as standard, meaning they generally don’t require planning permission. Plus, these spaces are much more cost-effective and hassle-free than alternatives such as conservatories or extensions. Sizes are available from 2.85m x 3.25m and there’s plenty of options to suit your space and needs.

What’s the difference between a Garden Room and a shed?
You may have heard a Garden Room referred to as a “posh shed” but in actual fact the two are very different. Garden rooms are more comparable to a room in your house, or even a timber-framed bungalow. They are designed with dwell time in mind, as opposed to sheds which are mainly used for storage purposes. These spaces are watertight, fully insulated and secure thanks to our high-quality materials, definitely not your average garden building.

What is a Garden Room used for?
Some of the most popular uses for our Garden Rooms include home offices, gyms and studios, but you can use this area as a blank canvas to create anything you’d like. As a leisure space, your Garden Room could be used to keep your home free and clear by creating a children’s playroom, cinema room or craft workshop. Alternatively, you might want to use it to run your own business, setting up a sales office, personal training fitness suite or photography studio. The only limit here is your imagination.
