The Ultimate Guide to Garden Rooms

Discover what to consider when planning a bespoke garden room in Wales — from design and insulation to planning permission and long-term use.

If you’re thinking about adding a garden room to your home, you’re not alone.

More and more homeowners across Wales are choosing bespoke timber garden rooms and container garden rooms as a stylish, practical way to gain extra space — without the hassle of a house extension.

Here’s what to consider to make sure your garden room is beautiful, functional, and built to last.

Design That Fits Your Life

Your garden room should reflect how you want to use it — whether that’s a home office, a wellness space, or somewhere to entertain friends.
At Nestive, we design every garden room around you, blending style with practicality so the space works now and for years to come.

Insulation and Comfort for All-Year Use

A key feature of any quality garden room is insulation. Our bespoke garden rooms include insulation to keep your space comfortable in every season.

With double glazing, durable materials, and optional heating, you’ll enjoy your garden room whatever the weather.

Planning Permission and Regulations

In most cases, garden rooms fall under permitted development, meaning no planning permission is needed.

There are limits on size, height, and use, but we handle checks and guide you through the process. If permission is required, we’ll help you every step of the way.

Built for the Future

A Nestive garden room is an investment in long-term value. We use premium materials and sustainable choices — whether you choose a timber garden room or a repurposed container garden room — and we back our builds with a 10-year workmanship guarantee for your peace of mind.
