At English Heritage Buildings Ltd., we are experts in designing garden rooms for UK homes. Our catalogue is full of potential and our gallery is an endless resource of possibilities – but with all that available to you, where do you start?To ease the design process and get your plans in order, we have put together our list of the top 10 design ideas for your garden rooms. We hope you find the inspiration you need to finally make your plan a reality.
1. Living space for everyone
With plenty of soft furnishings, a well-stocked bookshelf – and even a small selection of beverages – your garden room can be a living space fit for the whole family. It will be the place to be, and the place to share good times with loved ones.
2. Family room with character
Let your space represent you. Whether you prefer something cedar-clad and traditional or something more sleek and modern, our sturdy builds are perfect for hanging artwork from the walls or even the oak timber beams. There is nothing quite like a space with character, and our garden rooms are the perfect place to show who you are – it is your stage.
3. Pet-friendly sanctuary
Your new garden room is more than a place of solace for the human members of your family – with comfy pet beds, a selection of favourite toys, and a (locked) cabinet filled with treats, your garden room can transform into a luxurious sanctuary for your furry friends. They deserve it.
4. Much-needed kitchen extension
Your kitchen is the heart of your home – it is the place you probably spend the most time, and it has been home to many a family squabble and reconciliation. But as families grow, it may be time to expand. Our bespoke garden room extensions can add light and space to your kitchen, fit for a dining space or seating area and patio doors leading out to your garden.
5. Extra dining space
Sharing a meal with family and friends is the ultimate and most intimate way you can connect with the people in your life – and such a vital ritual deserves a dedicated space in your home. Our garden rooms can act as the perfect dining room extension. With a window installed or breakfast bar, you can connect it seamlessly with the rest of your home.
6. Perfect home office
With so many people working from home since Covid-19 struck, now is the perfect time to invest in a professional set-up. Our garden rooms, whether free-standing or attached to your home, act as the perfect workspace. Work/life balance is vital, and our garden room offices allow you to close the door at the end of a long day and leave it in the office until Monday.
7. Poolside retreat
You may already have an idyllic swimming pool in your outdoor space, but have you considered the addition of a poolhouse? Our garden rooms sit beautifully beside a pool – like a stand-alone conservatory of sorts – and with plenty of windows and a bifold door or two, they are a bright place to dry off or catch some shade.
8. Handy home gym
Our bespoke garden rooms are designed with sturdy flooring options, perfect for the daily grind of a home gym – so why not move all of your gear in, lay down some rubber mats, and transform your garden room into a home gym? Never worry about wasting another membership and keep your exercise routine close to home.
9. Spacious co-working room
For couples who are both in need of a space to work from home, you may find yourself treading on toes and getting in each other’s way throughout the day. Our garden rooms not only work perfectly as a workspace for one but also for multiple family members. With some cleverly placed furniture partitions, and a wrap-around desk or two, your new garden room will be working for you during your work day.
10. Vibrant games room
A place to unwind after a long day, or somewhere to spend the winter months when it is too cold to socialise outside. Setting up your garden room as the ultimate entertainment space will create a magnetic space that everyone will want to have a turn in. Encourage connection in your home with games you can share in a space that is your own.
