L-Shaped Garden Room Home Gym

Buckinghamshire

Bespoke Garden Room Design with Practical Enhancements

Build Duration: 7 weeks
Approximate Cost: £40,000

At Handmade Hideaways, we specialise in creating bespoke garden room designs that not only enhance your outdoor space but also support your lifestyle. This recent project involved the design and installation of an L-shaped garden room to be used as a fully equipped home gym.

To comply with planning regulations while still achieving the desired internal height, we opted to sink the entire structure into the ground. This clever design decision maximised ceiling height inside the space without compromising external visual impact — perfect for a fitness-focused layout.

Key Features of This Garden Gym Room

  • L-Shaped Layout: The unique footprint of the garden room was tailored to the available space and designed for functional zoning within the gym environment.
  • Board and Batten Cladding: We used vertical board and batten cladding for a timeless, rural aesthetic that blends naturally into the garden setting.
  • Slate Roof: A slate tiled roof not only adds charm and character but also ensures long-lasting weather resistance.
  • Pallet Wood Ceiling: Internally, a pallet wood ceiling introduces warmth and texture, contrasting beautifully with the clean plastered and painted walls.
  • Bi-Fold Doors: Two sets of bi-folding doors flood the gym with natural light and provide seamless access to the outdoors – ideal for cooling down post-workout.
  • Fully Equipped: The installation included full electrics, lighting, multiple sockets, integrated air conditioning and Wi-Fi – turning this garden gym room into a truly modern and comfortable exercise space.

A Stylish and Functional Home Gym

Whether you’re lifting weights, using a treadmill or practising yoga, this garden room is a high-performance space with all the comforts of an indoor gym – right in the garden. By combining smart structural elements with tailored finishes, we delivered a garden room that is as practical as it is attractive.

This L-shaped garden gym is a great example of how we can tailor each build to your exact needs. From cladding and roofing materials to internal layout and lighting, every element is designed around how you want to use your space.

If you’re looking for a garden room that’s built to work as hard as you do, whether for fitness, work or relaxation, Handmade Hideaways offers expert garden room design and installation across Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.
