Answer

Should I extend the house or build a garden room?

Garden room for a separate, cheaper, quicker space; extension for connected living space.

In short

A garden room is usually quicker, less disruptive and cheaper than extending, and often permitted development, while an extension adds connected space to the house itself. If you want a separate office, studio or gym, a garden room is often the better answer; for connected living space, an extension.
