Garden Games Room, Dorset. Mrs Ketteridge came to Garden Retreat as she had a specific space problem she wanted to resolve and on the face of it we had the solution.  She has a large extended family with a number of grandchildren and when they come to stay it’s always a bit of a squeeze.  She needed to have an additional room for the grandchildren to stay in and to extend the house was not an option.

Clearly the additional accommodation needed to be warm, secure and fit into the garden within the available space.  Also, it had to suit planning regulations as it would be situated as close to the boundary as possible due to the fact the garden was quite small so it had to be no higher than 2.5m to the pitch, the highest point.

We ended up providing the perfect solution which satisfied all the criteria, meeting the budget, a garden room that can be used all year round, an attractive design and more importantly somewhere for the grandchildren to stay and play in.
