Take the inside outside with Miranda Jessop’s pick of stunning garden rooms
Cinema, teenage den, yoga retreat or home office... what do you fancy? If you’re lucky enough to have the space, it makes perfect sense to create an extra room in the garden. Structures can often be built under the permitted development rules but be sure to check first with your local planning authority. Next, decide whether you’re taking the ready-made or bespoke design route and away you go. You’ll wonder how you ever lived without it and are sure to be the envy of the neighbourhood!
