We live quite far away; is it really worth visiting our show rooms? Absolutely!
We strongly urge anyone looking for a new building – whether it's a new garden shed, summerhouse, workshop, garage, or a full garden room – to
visit and inspect the quality in person before committing to any purchase.
Seeing the craftsmanship, materials and finishes for yourself is the best way to make a confident and informed decision.
Whilst we cannot display everything we offer, we have carefully selected around 80 different buildings that allow us to demonstrate almost every feature, design option, and construction detail in one form or another.
This allows you to compare styles, sizes and specifications, ask any questions you may have, and find the building that best suits your needs.
So, yes, it is absolutely worth visiting.

1/ Working from home in Windsor, avoiding the daily commute, is one reason to think about having an office in your garden. It can be more enjoyable, and you can be more creative with a calm, clear mind that isn’t tired from the 7.42 train to Windsor. With the internet being so good now, you can connect to the office as if you were there. Video calls are easy to set up and share with all your work colleagues. It helps balance work and life, and the extra time saved can be spent with your loved ones. However, you need to be disciplined about your work hours. Don’t work in your pyjamas, but you don’t need to wear full city clothes – casual is fine.
2/ A Windsor garden room can help you create your perfect workspace. Having a separate area makes it easier to keep work and home life separate. You can also use a garden room for fun activities, like setting up a gym or a place for hobbies and crafts. This extra space lets you arrange your things and have more room, which can reduce clutter and make your home feel tidier.
3/ Working outside the main house helps separate daily activities like eating, laundry, and television, creating a more focused environment. This separation supports balance and reduces stress. Having a dedicated garden office allows you to work independently and maintain control over your schedule.
4/ Any time of year is the perfect moment to reclaim your life, but there’s something about the fresh start of a New Year that inspires real change in how we live and work. After nearly five decades in the world of wood, I can tell you there’s nothing quite like it. Wood is alive, warm, and uplifting in a way that concrete, brick, or steel could never match. Imagine trading the dry, stuffy air of an office block for a garden home office where you set the mood and the temperature. Craving a breeze? Simply open your window and let the fresh air in. Try that in a corporate tower and see how far you get.
5/ Modern garden rooms can be surprisingly inexpensive if you take into account the benefits they can provide for you. Small garden offices often provide that bit of space you need to function perfectly. And even the larger, fully insulated building will be much cheaper than the equivalent home extension. Also, they are far easier to plan for and implement. With just the time a normal house extension takes to get planning permission in Windsor, you could have a new, delightful office in place. That’s got to be worth considering.
6/ Whereas you can work from home for your employer, the benefits multiply if you are self-employed or run a small business from home. Check out the cost of renting an office against buying your own office in your garden, including running costs. The difference is amazing. And when you have bought your new building, there is no rent to pay each month, so it doesn’t affect your bottom line. Quite possibly, just the first year’s savings from a rented small office may pay for your new Windsor building.
7/ All of our Royal, Fleet, and Odihaminsulated garden rooms are fully insulated and come with double-glazed doors and windows as standard. This energy-efficient design helps reduce heating costs for those working from home. Your new building will remain comfortable year-round, supporting a productive work environment while lowering energy bills.
8/ Your new insulated garden building is more than just an office; it can easily transform into a garden gym, a lively playroom, or whatever suits your changing needs. Imagine choosing a modern design with multiple rooms from the start. One space could be your dedicated office, while others become a creative workshop or a cosy hobby room. By bringing all these possibilities under one roof, you create a beautiful timber retreat in your Windsor garden and save money compared to buying separate buildings. We also offer coloured finish option as well.
9/ The primary consideration for any purchase is its cost-effectiveness. For VAT-registered businesses, VAT can typically be reclaimed on purchases. Tax and capital allowance implications can be complex, so it is advisable to consult your accountant to determine the most suitable approach. You may also consider charging your business rent for using the new insulated garden room for business purposes. Your accountant can provide guidance on the best course of action.
10/ We recommend visiting several garden rooms and offices before deciding. If you drive from Windsor to the 1st Choice Garden room show site, where nearly 80 garden buildings are on display, you can walk through the options to see which best suits your needs. Our garden room advisors are available to answer any questions you may have.
11/ Previous customers’ views are so important, so always take a look at what they are saying. Take a look at the feedback from our customers from Google, Trust Pilot and WhiteSpark. Sometimes we don’t get it 100% right the first time (but we try the very best to ensure we do), but we always follow through to ensure the best outcome for our customers.
12/ This brings us back to why you should pick a new garden room for your Windsor home. Keeping your home life and work life balanced is important, as is saving time and money. But nothing beats having your own space and enjoying nature in your garden. That’s why you should think about the features that matter to you, the size of your new modern garden room, and the layout that fits you best. Don’t rush this choice – talk to the experts and visit some examples of the buildings. Only then can you truly see the quality and know what to expect. Don’t settle for less – only buy the building that’s right for you. Or choose a custom garden room made just for you.
