Garden offices

A garden office built for real work

A garden office is the most popular use of a garden room, and it is only worth having if it works as a proper place to work all year. We design and build insulated, wired, warm garden offices, built for the site and the way you work, not a summerhouse with a desk pushed into the corner.

Built for year-round use

The difference between an office you use every day and one that sits empty in winter is the build. We construct on a proper base, insulate the floor, walls and roof to a genuine standard, specify the glazing for light without glare, and run the power, data and heating a working room needs. Built that way, it is comfortable to work in through a Wiltshire January, not just in summer.

Designed around how you work

We start with how you will actually use it, the desk and storage layout, the light and the outlook, whether you take calls or video meetings, and design the room around that. A good garden office feels like a proper workplace at the bottom of the garden, with the commute reduced to a walk across the lawn.

Planning, kept simple

Most garden offices fall within permitted development as an outbuilding, but it depends on size, height and position, and building regulations often apply once you pass certain sizes. We confirm what applies and design to stay compliant. Arrange a consultation and we will design an office to suit your work.

• Can I use a garden office all year round?

  Yes, when it is built properly. We build on a proper base, insulate the floor, walls and roof to a genuine standard, and run the heating, power and data a working room needs, so it is comfortable through winter, not just summer.

• Do garden offices need planning permission?

  Usually they fall within permitted development as an outbuilding, but it depends on size, height and position, and conservation areas and the Cotswold National Landscape tighten the rules. We confirm what applies before designing.

• Do building regulations apply to a garden office?

  Often, once the floor area passes certain thresholds or it is close to a boundary. We design to stay compliant and tell you where they apply.

• What makes a garden office better than a kit?

  A kit is dropped onto whatever base is there and finished to a catalogue. A built garden office is designed for your site, work and outlook, set on proper groundworks and insulated for year-round use, which is why it works as a real workplace.
