What is Included in Every Green Retreats Garden House
Choosing a garden house from Green Retreats gives you a dedicated space for entertaining, socialising and unwinding, designed to feel comfortable in every season and built to last. Here is what you can expect as standard:
Expert Installation in Days
Installed in just 2 to 5 days by our experienced team, so you can start using your garden house sooner without a long, drawn-out build.
Energy Efficient Glazing
Double glazed doors and windows help retain heat, reduce noise and improve security, making your garden house comfortable all year round.
All Season Insulation
Insulation in the walls, floor and roof helps regulate temperature, keeping your garden house warm in winter and cool in summer.
Built to Last with Confidence
A 12 year guarantee gives you confidence that your garden house is built for long term use.
Turnkey Building Package
Heating, lighting, power sockets, flooring and exterior finishes are all included, so your garden house is ready to use as soon as installation is complete.
Can You Live in a Garden House?
Most garden houses are classed as incidental buildings, which means they’re perfect for things like working from home, relaxing or occasional overnight stays, but not as a permanent place to live. This is also what allows many to be built under permitted development, without the need for planning permission.
If your goal is a fully liveable space with a kitchen, bathroom and sleeping area, a garden annexe is typically the best fit. Speak with our design consultants to explore what’s possible for your home, including any planning or building regulation requirements.

Do You Need Planning Permission for a Garden House?
In many cases, garden houses do not require planning permission and can be built under permitted development. As a guide, they should be single storey, typically no higher than 2.5m near boundaries, and not take up more than 50% of your garden, while being used as an incidental space rather than for full time living.

Garden Houses FAQs
A garden house can be used all year round providing it is properly insulated. At Green Retreats, all of our garden houses come with double glazing, insulation and heating, making it suitable to use all year round no matter the weather.
Garden houses can be used in many ways, from home offices and gyms to bars and relaxing spaces. They are designed to give you practical, everyday room to use, without taking away space inside your home, making better use of your garden instead.
Garden houses can add real value to your home by creating extra usable space that appeals to buyers. Whether used as a home office, gym or social space, this additional room often makes a property more attractive and versatile.
On average, a well designed garden house can increase your property’s value by around 5 to 15 percent, depending on the quality, size and how effectively the space is used.
A well-built garden house can last 30 years or more when constructed with high quality materials and proper insulation.
Regular maintenance and professional installation also play a key role in ensuring long term durability.

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!
