We spoke with industry experts Green Retreats who recently carried out a Q&A with some property specialists to understand whether garden rooms actually add value to a property, and the short answer is yes – garden rooms do add value: 'Garden rooms can add 1.5x their value to a home depending on the quality of the build, therefore covering the cost of the installation.' Our range even features some offices with in-built storage. So get the best of both worlds! Are you self-employed? Do you run a business from home, or have a creative hobby that's taking up too much room in your house? Then a home office might be the solution for you.

The convenience value is also significant and must be considered for homeowners.' Can you use a garden room as a bedroom?

A summerhouse gives you the chance to indulge in a sense of escapism and create a personal retreat. It could serve as an extra living space or bedroom but it is well worth investing in running electricity to provide heating and lighting, in addition to insulation so it can be used year round. If you want quiet and peace of mind, then the airy space offered by our small garden rooms could be perfect for you. With separate spaces and clever designs, you could set up your own relaxing green retreat. Or even a garden studio to pursue your passions. A garden room doesn't mean that your cabin has to be all about a dedicated workspace!

Amazed he’d won, he recalled in his memoir, A Landscape Legacy (2018, Pimpernel Press), that his garden‘was remarkable because it was the first garden at Chelsea that was about design rather about merely showcasing plants. It was also the first exhibit in the history of the Chelsea Flower Show to be presented under the designer’s name rather than that of a nursery firm, as designers generally worked for nurseries at that time.’ Or are you after something smaller, cosier, and more affordable?

Garden Office Pods As we celebrate the 60 th anniversary of John’s first Chelsea Exhibition Garden (one of eight he designed overall), there is a timelessness and universality to John’s 1962 garden. It is easy to imagine recreating the layout of his garden now in virtually any city in the world. The incinerator could be replaced with a composter; the concrete pergola, walls and paving with sustainable materials; and the plantings with those conducive to supporting local pollinators.
