What Is a Garden Pod?

A Self-Contained Room in Your Garden

A garden pod — also called a garden room or garden studio — is a bespoke, fully insulated standalone building in your garden. Built for everyday, year-round use, it's the simplest way to add real space without extending your home.

What You Can Use It For

One Pod, Many Uses

A garden pod is whatever you need it to be. Explore each option for the detail.

Garden Studios for Music, Art & Yoga

Many of our pods are built as garden studios: a music room away from the house, a bright art or craft studio, a calm space for yoga or pilates, or a quiet room for recording a podcast. Even a small garden studio is fully insulated and plastered, so it holds a steady temperature for instruments, paint and people all year. We plan the details around how you’ll use it, from acoustic panels and extra sockets to north-facing glazing for even light.

FAQ

Garden Pod Questions

What is a garden pod?

A garden pod is a self-contained, fully insulated garden building — a standalone room in your garden you can use all year as an office, gym, studio or guest space.

Do you build garden studios?

Yes. A garden studio is one of the most popular ways to use a pod: a music or rehearsal room, an art or craft studio, a yoga or pilates space, or a podcast room. Even a small garden studio is fully insulated, so it is comfortable to use all year, and we can add acoustic treatment, extra glazing for light or a sprung floor depending on what you'll do in it.

What's the difference between a garden pod and a garden room?

They're essentially the same thing. 'Garden pod', 'garden room' and 'garden studio' are different names for a bespoke, insulated standalone building in your garden — we design and build them all.

Can I use a garden pod all year round?

Yes. Our pods are fully insulated across the walls, floor and roof, so they're warm in winter and cool in summer.

Do I need planning permission for a garden pod?

Most garden pods up to 30 m² and 3 m high are exempt from planning permission since July 2026. We confirm the rules for your specific site during your free visit.

How much does a garden pod cost?

It depends on size and specification — every pod is bespoke. See our garden room cost guide for the factors, or book a free site visit for an exact quote.

How long does a garden pod take to build?

Most builds are completed in a short timeframe with minimal disruption to your home.
