Your Garden Room: Your Lifestyle
Installing a garden room is a great way to add style and space to your home, and there are many ways to make the most of it. The sky is the limit – you can create anything you can imagine – and we’ll share our favourite ideas to inspire you. You can also create a multi-purpose area, combining some of these ideas to provide a multi-functional space for everyone in your household.
Your garden room could be a:
- Garden office. Working remotely brings many benefits, and having a beautiful office area in your garden room gives you the freedom to design your own schedule without getting distracted by daily chores. A designated work space is a great way to keep your work separate from your home life, and many of our designs feature large, light spaces that make ideal studios for creativity. Whether you are working in a clerical role, running your own business or meeting with clients, we have a good range of wooden garden rooms that can be divided into different areas, including multi-room designs, and you can create the perfect work/life balance for yourself and your family.
- Yoga studio. Exercising at home is a great alternative to attending classes, and if you practice yoga, meditation or mindfulness, a quiet space can make all the difference to your wellbeing. You can create a peaceful retreat space in your cabin and enjoy the calm environment whenever it suits you, and there’s no need to worry about driving to a yoga class, parking or paying fees. Our sustainable wooden garden rooms are beautiful and spacious, and you can accessorise your space with candles, yoga mats and props so that you can really relax and unwind.
- Entertaining area. Imagine a gorgeous space in your garden, where you can invite guests and enjoy unwinding without worrying about disturbing your neighbours or clearing away the daily clutter in your home. Your garden entertaining area can be set up as a designated eating and relaxing area all year round, allowing you to enjoy the garden even when the weather is bad, and you can design a beautiful atmosphere that feels like a break for yourself as well as for your guests. Many of our garden rooms have covered terraces so that you can make the most of al fresco dining, and you can indulge yourself in creating the decor you want, whether you are dreaming of a cosy nook or a minimal, Scandinavian-style space.
- Garden gym. If you’ve ever struggled to fit in a visit to the gym or got stuck in traffic on the way, you’ll see the numerous benefits that a home gym can offer. You can set up your garden gym to incorporate the type of workout you want to do, and you can even add a relaxation area to wind down after exercising. You can use your garden gym at any time of the day or night, there’s no need to worry about parking or waiting for the equipment you want to use, and you can jump in your own shower straight away once you’ve finished!
- Guest bedroom. If you have limited space in your home, a garden room is the ideal space for a guest bedroom or even for living accommodation for older teenagers or adult children who need their own space. Subject to planning requirements, you can install a garden room with sleeping accommodation that can be used for all or part of the year, and you can create a welcoming, cosy environment with our well-insulated designs. You can add an en-suite if you wish, and design a gorgeous space for guests – the only problem is that they’ll never want to leave!
- Creative studio space. Whether you work in a creative industry or are devoted to enjoying creative pursuits in your spare time, your garden room can become the perfect studio space. Many of our designs have glass walls and sliding doors to maximise the light, and a peaceful setting in your garden can provide excellent inspiration for your creativity. You can design the ideal set-up for painting, writing or sewing, or even create a pottery studio in your unique and beautiful new space.
- Maybe you feel that you’re constantly tripping over toys or clearing away craft projects for your children? A garden playroom can transform your life by giving the children a place to store their toys, and you can create a fun and exciting environment for them to explore, with messy play in the garden, cosy areas for reading and a sense of ownership over their own belongings. This works well for many families, especially if space inside the house is limited or you have very close neighbours, and you can get the children involved in designing their own space to suit them.
- Games room. If you have older children or teenagers, or if you like to have friends over regularly, a games room could be the perfect choice for your garden room. You could add a table tennis table or a pool table, or simply add your favourite board games and some comfortable chairs. If you really want to impress the neighbours, you could consider transforming your space into a cinema room, with a projector and surround sound system. Add a mini fridge for your snacks and get stuck into your film collection or set up a gaming tournament with friends.
- Garden bar. Have you ever dreamed of having a pub in your own garden? There’s nothing better than having your own pub, where you can enjoy a relaxing evening with friends or simply wind down after work, with a customised bar to suit your preferences in your stunning wooden garden room. You can decorate your garden bar in style, embracing Scandinavian simplicity or going all out to create a cosy, traditional pub feel, and enjoy being the envy of all your friends.
- Spa area. A spa area in your garden is the ultimate luxury, giving you the perfect spot to relax and chill out. You can combine your spa area with a garden gym, so that you can work out and then take a sauna and recover in style, or set up an outdoor sauna cabin and plunge pool to really make the most of your space.
You can design your garden room to suit your lifestyle and your budget, and we can help you to find the best fit for you and your family.
