Thoughtfully Designed Garden Rooms, Born from Real Experience

Hello from the co-founders of Backyard Cabins, Nick and Matthew.

Backyard Cabins was founded during the challenges of 2020, a time when many of us were forced to rethink how we live, work, and use the space around us. With lockdowns and remote working becoming part of everyday life, it became clear that making better use of available space was more important than ever.

Like many others, we were searching for a solution that was practical, well-designed, and affordable — a way to create additional space without the disruption and cost of a traditional home extension. That search led to the creation of Backyard Cabins.

Designed for Modern Living

Having experienced the benefits of garden cabin living ourselves, we were inspired to offer others the same flexibility and freedom. A garden room can transform how you use your home - providing valuable, multi-purpose space just steps from your door.

As working from home and outdoor living continue to shape modern lifestyles, Backyard Cabins offer elegant, functional garden rooms designed to adapt to how you live today.

Whether used as a garden office, studio, gym, or quiet retreat, our cabins are designed to feel like a natural extension of your home.

Designed In House Built to Last

All of our cabin designs are created in-house, with careful attention to proportion, usability, and long-term performance. Each garden room is handcrafted in the UK, using high-quality materials and sustainable options wherever possible.

We design our cabins to suit a wide range of uses, including:

  • Garden offices and workspaces

  • Yoga and wellness studios

  • Home gyms

  • Workshops and creative studios

  • Children’s playrooms

  • Year-round relaxation spaces

Every detail is considered - from insulation and structure to finishes and layout, ensuring your cabin performs as beautifully as it looks.

Quality You Can Rely On

We believe that a garden room should be a long-term investment. That’s why we use only carefully selected materials and proven construction methods, resulting in cabins built for durability, comfort, and year-round use.

To give you complete peace of mind, every Backyard Cabin is backed by a 10-year warranty.

Our Philosophy

At Backyard Cabins, we believe outdoor spaces should be:

  • Functional — designed around real life

  • Beautiful — considered, balanced, and timeless

  • Versatile — able to evolve as your needs change

We’re passionate about helping people transform underused outdoor areas into spaces that genuinely enhance how they live and work.
