Garden Summerhouse Sanctuary

“I was fairly clear about how I would use the cabin as it replaced a much smaller summer house. I wanted it to be a bit of a sanctuary; somewhere quiet to read in, listen to music, a place to enjoy a glass of wine with friends. I liked the idea of creating a quiet area away from the house that I could pop out to for an afternoon snooze, or to admire the garden & watch wildlife coming and going. It was wonderful to be able to have electricity, double glazing and floor to ceiling windows – now we’re able to use the room throughout the seasons and watch seasonal changes in the garden area. George was such a great help in this respect – showing me all the available options & helping me chose what was best for me. We opted for a Hybrid building which combined two different cladding options. We loved the natural look of the Redwood cladding, but knew we didn’t want to have to treat the whole of the building with a stain or preservative as an ongoing thing, so we chose to have Marley Board on the two less prominent parts of the building. The Marley Board doesn’t require any maintenance once it’s been installed so was the perfect fit!"
