A garden room building rarely requires planning permission and is installed within 2-5 days.
Garden room extensions are detached from your home which creates a space that is highly versatile and completely private, letting you be free with how you will use yours.

Garden room offices are the perfect solution to help work from home. Our buildings are completely detached from the house, making them the perfect space to focus on your work away from the distractions of home.

Our buildings are fully insulated using premium quality materials and are designed for use all-year-round. Your garden room office is guaranteed to be a warm, dry and comfortable workspace.

Fantastic Room in a little London garden!
We now have an amazing room at the bottom of our garden that fits in beautifully and feels as though it has been there for ever. All the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly and the entire process was very straightforward.

Excellent choice of supplier for my Garden Studio! So pleased 🙂
Green Retreats deserve every single one of my star ratings! They have been very professional right from the start, from welcoming me to their warehouse to helping me make the right choice through to a fabulous installation. The finished studio is amazing, a top quality build and the installation teams were timely, polite and very hard-working.
Thanks to you all…what a fab company!!
by Alexa Garthwaite
Fantastic product and service to match
We had a 3.5m by 5m garden room installed last month and we are delighted with the result. We are using it as a home gym and love the extra space it has given us! The building also looks fantastic at the bottom of our garden. Green retreats have been an absolute pleasure to deal with. In summary I have been very impressed by both the product and the service provided by green retreats and highly recommend!
