Just a brief note to say how delighted I am with the Melanie (9.6 sqm) Log Cabin I bought from you. Your service and price were superb and Greg and Craig came at 9am on Tuesday and worked right through until 8pm to build it.
They did an excellent job and did not stop all day. Greg advised that I should paint the door and windows a different colour as otherwise the green painted log cabin would be ‘lost’ in the garden and I took their advice. I used two different colours of Butinox No. 3 and the result is absolutely incredible. Many thanks once again. One hugely satisfied customer.

The delivery lorry arrived about eleven o’clock and the driver duly unloaded two very large packages. At eleven thirty my neighbour and I began to investigate these well protected packages.
Just after three o’clock that afternoon, two self satisfied men were enjoying a well deserved beverage whilst admiring the 4.5 by 3.5 meter cabin which was now completed up to roof purling level.
The construction of the cabin was so logical and easy, just like assembling ‘Lego blocks’ only heavier.

We absolutely love our Summer House – we can seat 16 people inside it, it stays warm long after the sun has gone down and it is particularly special as we run a B&B, so we can escape into it, invite all our friends to parties in it and now, we have installed electricity so can have lighting, heat and music as and when needed. It also provides a really big area to store all our garden furniture during the winter months.
We would absolutely recommend you to anyone considering buying one. Many thanks.

Frequently Asked Questions About Garden Rooms

What are the benefits of having a garden room?

1. Extra space: One of the main advantages of having a garden room is the additional living space it offers. It allows you to extend your indoor living area without the need for a major home renovation.

2. Close to nature: Garden rooms provide a unique opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature while being protected from the elements. You can experience the tranquility of your garden and benefit from increased natural light.

3. Versatile use: Garden rooms have a multitude of uses. Whether you need a dedicated workspace away from distractions, a creative studio to pursue your hobbies, or a comfortable guest suite, a garden room can be customized to meet your specific needs.

4. Increased property value: A well-designed and well-maintained garden room can add value to your property. It's an attractive feature for potential buyers, as it offers additional functionality and versatility.

What are the design options for garden rooms?

1. Traditional design: A traditional wooden garden room often features a pitched roof, wooden construction, and large windows. This design suits a rustic or cottage-style garden and creates a charming and cozy atmosphere.

2. Modern design: For a contemporary look, a modern garden room with clean lines, sleek materials like glass and metal, and a flat or living roof can be a great choice. This design complements modern gardens and provides a more open and bright feel.

3. Eco-friendly design: Sustainable garden rooms are becoming increasingly popular. These eco-friendly buildings use materials like reclaimed wood, recycled insulation, and energy-efficient windows to minimize their impact on the environment.

4. Bespoke design: Many companies offer bespoke garden room designs, allowing you to personalize every aspect, from the size and layout to the choice of materials and colors. This option ensures that your new garden room perfectly meets your specific requirements and complements your garden's style.

What should I consider when building a garden room?

1. Planning permission: In many cases, a garden building can be constructed without the need for planning permission, as long as they meet certain criteria. For example, you don't need planning permission in many regions if the building is less than 2.5m high. However, it is always advisable to check with your local authorities or consult a professional before starting the construction process.

2. Site selection: Choose a suitable location in your garden that maximizes privacy, sunlight, and overall aesthetics. Consider factors such as access, views, and proximity to utilities if required.

3. Building regulations: While most garden studios are exempt from building regulations, it is important to ensure that the construction complies with regulations for safety, insulation, and fire prevention. Again, seeking professional advice is recommended.

4. Maintenance: To keep your insulated garden room in good condition and prolong its lifespan, regular maintenance such as treating the wood, cleaning the windows, and checking for any water leaks is essential.

5. Features: When building a garden room, consider key features like double glazed windows, helping to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency. Look for high-quality timber construction for durability and natural aesthetic appeal. Additionally, opting for a prefab design ensures easy assembly, with installation services available for convenience.
