An increasing number of individuals are working from home now more than ever before. With this change, the need for a dedicated workspace has grown. Whether you're working remotely full-time or part-time, having a private, comfortable space to focus is essential. These outdoor spaces provide a distraction-free environment, allowing you to focus on work without interruptions.
These outdoor spaces allow you to work without distractions, all while enjoying the calming environment of your garden. At Poulton Portables, we specialize in crafting high-quality outdoor workspaces that cater to your specific needs. Our goal is to ensure that your home office becomes a true haven for productivity.
What is a Garden Office?
A garden room is a building placed in your backyard, designed specifically for work. This is separate from your home, providing a private and peaceful place to focus. Unlike working inside, where family and household chores may cause distractions, a garden room separates your work life. These buildings have fully insulated walls, double-glazed windows, and strong materials that prevent decay and insect damage.
We build these rooms for year-round use, ensuring they provide a level of comfort that makes them ideal for long hours of work. Whether it's sunny and warm or rainy and cold, your garden room will remain an inviting space. You won’t have to worry about being too hot in the summer or too cold in the winter.
Benefits of a Garden Office
Having a garden room offers many advantages. First, it gives you a dedicated office space, helping you stay focused and productive. With no distractions, you can work more efficiently and have a better work-life balance. The quiet and calm of the outdoor environment also helps reduce stress and boosts creativity.
We build these rooms for comfort. Thanks to full insulation, they stay warm in winter and cool in summer. The double-glazed windows further improve insulation, keeping your space quiet and cosy all year round. You don’t have to worry about high energy costs, as these spaces are energy-efficient and eco-friendly.
Unlike working in a cramped room at home, a garden room offers the space you need to be productive. It can easily accommodate your desk, office chair, storage, and even a small meeting area. This extra space allows you to keep everything organized and within reach, making your work environment more efficient.
At Poultons, there is a variety of styles to choose from. Whether you want a sleek, modern office pod or a spacious log cabin, you can select a design that fits your garden and taste. We construct these buildings to last with minimal maintenance. They resist weather damage and insect infestation, ensuring they stay in good condition for years.
Do You Need Planning Permission?
Many garden buildings do not require planning permission. We refer to these as "permitted development". However, some exceptions apply. For example, if your structure is higher than 2.5 meters or consumes too much space, you may need approval.
Also, if you live in a conservation area or own a listed property, stricter rules may apply.
Local planning authorities always advise checking with them. Poulton Portables can also help guide you through the process, ensuring your new workspace complies with all necessary regulations. Our team provides expert advice on the requirements for your specific location, making the planning process stress-free.
Types of Outdoor Workspaces
- Log Cabins: A log cabin garden is perfect for those who want a rustic, natural feel. Our team provides expert advice on the requirements for your specific location, making the planning process stress-free. We treat the timber to resist decay and insect infestation, ensuring it lasts for many years. A log cabin’s classic charm fits perfectly with your garden, giving your outdoor office a unique look.
- Office Pods: If you have limited space or prefer a modern look, an office pod is a great choice. These small, sleek buildings are ideal for smaller gardens. Despite their size, they offer all the features of a full office space, including comfort and privacy. Designers create office pods to maximize space efficiency without compromising on quality or style.
- Summer Houses: People traditionally use these as leisure spaces, but you can easily convert them into fully functional offices. Their large windows allow natural light to flood the room, creating a bright and inviting workspace. The open, airy design of a summer house creates a sense of space, making it perfect for those who want a bright, roomy atmosphere.
- Bespoke Garden Rooms: A bespoke garden room offers flexibility for a unique design. You can customize it to meet your exact needs of size, design, and materials. This ensures your workspace fits perfectly into your garden and suits your work style. A bespoke room can have extra storage, shelves, or a meeting area—whatever you need.
Why Choose a Wooden Garden Office?
Wooden structures are a popular choice for many reasons. Wood looks beautiful and brings a warm, inviting feeling to any space. It also offers excellent insulation, helping to keep your workspace comfortable year-round.
At Poulton Portables, we use treated timber to ensure durability. This protects the wood from the elements and prevents decay and insect infestation. We carefully source the wood to ensure it meets our high-quality standards. Whether your garden is traditional or modern, a wooden room blends well with any outdoor space.
Wood is a renewable resource, making it an eco-friendly material choice. Choosing a wooden garden room supports sustainable living and reduces your carbon footprint. This is especially important for those who want to create an office that aligns with their environmental values.
