Discover what makes it a Cedar Space

Bespoke Garden Gyms in Hertfordshire & North London

A garden gym should feel like a place you genuinely want to train — private, motivating, comfortable, and built to perform all year round. Not a cold shed with a treadmill. Not a compromised spare room. And not a short-term solution that quickly becomes unused.

At Cedar Spaces Garden Rooms, we design and build bespoke garden gyms from our base in Harpenden, serving homeowners across Hertfordshire and North London. Our garden gyms are created for people who want to train consistently, in comfort, with proper space, durability, and privacy — without leaving home.

Every garden gym we build is designed from scratch, engineered for year-round use, and delivered as a complete, finished space — not a kit, not a shell, and not a compromise.

A Smarter Way to Train at Home

Training at home often starts with good intentions. A few weights in the garage. A treadmill in the spare room. Over time, the problems appear — cold floors, poor ventilation, noise in the house, limited space, and equipment that never quite fits properly.

A dedicated garden gym changes that completely.

More about life with a garden gym

It gives you a separate, purpose-built environment where you can train properly, without disturbing the household or being distracted by it. You step out of the house, enter a focused space, and train on your own terms. For many clients, this separation is the key to consistency.

A garden gym is also a practical alternative to:

  • Long-term gym memberships
  • Travelling to and from training facilities
  • Converting garages that are cold and restrictive
  • Sacrificing valuable internal living space
Garden Gyms — designed for everyday comfort
Comfort without compromise

Made for movement. All year round.

A garden gym must work in January as well as July.

Our garden gyms are designed to remain:

  • Warm in winter
  • Cool and ventilated in summer
  • Comfortable for long training sessions

This is achieved through proper insulation to walls, floor, and roof, controlled ventilation, and materials chosen for durability and performance. Flooring, wall finishes, and glazing are all specified with real training use in mind.

Acoustic separation is also critical. Being physically separate from the house reduces noise transfer immediately, allowing you to train freely without worrying about disturbing others.

Garden Gyms — bespoke construction

Fully Bespoke Design — Built Around How You Train

No two people train the same way, so no two garden gyms should be identical.

Every design begins with how you’ll actually use the space:

  • Type of training and equipment
  • Ceiling height and movement clearance
  • Floor loading and impact absorption
  • Mirror placement and lighting
  • Storage and layout flow
  • Future flexibility for other uses

We also design around the garden itself — orientation, access, boundaries, and how the building will sit visually within the space. The goal is always the same: a garden gym that feels considered, permanent, and motivating to use.

Talk through your requirements
The Cedar approach

Considered from
the ground up.

Your written quotation sets out exactly what is included. Cedar’s published specification provides the starting point.

  • Design consultation and a bespoke plan
  • Insulation for year-round use
  • Electrics, lighting, plastered walls and flooring
  • Glazing and a choice of exterior finishes
  • Site-specific foundations: concrete or ground screws
  • Build coordination and aftercare

Cedar publishes a 10-year structural warranty and a 20-year EPDM roof guarantee. Ask for the applicable terms with your quote.

Materials & construction details
Insulation
Year-round use is part of the brief. Your specification confirms the wall, floor and roof build-up, insulation thicknesses and thermal performance.
Cladding & interior
Choose the exterior finish, then agree flooring, wall finishes and any fitted joinery. Ask to see the proposed material samples and care guidance.
Roof & drainage
Confirm the EPDM roof specification, roof edges, any canopy, and gutter and downpipe positions on the final drawings.
Doors & windows
The customiser explores door styles and side glazing. Exact opening sizes, frame material, glazing performance and locks are agreed for your build.
Electrics & lighting
Agree socket quantities, lighting, heating loads and data needs. The quotation must identify the connection to the house, cable route and any trenching or extra work.
Foundations
Concrete foundations or ground screws are considered at the site visit. Ground conditions, levels and the intended load determine the final approach.

Exact technical values belong to your agreed specification. The visualiser does not establish insulation ratings, certified internal clearances or construction dimensions.

What do we confirm for your project?

Access and groundwork; exact foundations; electrical and internet connections; heating and ventilation; any water and drainage; interior fit-out; specialist equipment; tax treatment; the programme and warranty terms. Items are included only where stated in your written quotation.

Discuss your specification
Before the build

A little planning.
A better fit.

A few details about your garden help turn a starting design into a properly considered quotation.

01 · Space

Measure beyond the footprint.

The sizes shown are external room dimensions. Interior space is smaller once the walls and finishes are allowed for. Roof edges, gutters, decking and a canopy may extend beyond that footprint.

Share your available width and depth, boundaries, trees and any height restrictions. We’ll confirm internal dimensions and working space around the room in the drawings.

02 · Access & ground

Show us the route in.

Photographs of the garden and the access route are useful, including narrow gates, steps, changes in level and an existing base.

Discuss clearance and foundations with us before arranging groundworks. An existing concrete base needs review before it can be included in the design.

03 · Services

Plan the connections.

List the equipment you intend to use, where sockets and lights will help, and whether you need heating, cooling or wired internet.

Water, drainage and the electrical connection back to the house need a site-specific scope. Ask for these works, the programme and VAT breakdown to be clear in your quote.

We are really pleased with our garden room. Mix of gym and snug room. Brian worked with us to maximise the use of the plot and was also flexible with design as we worked through cabling and door choices later in the process. Good quality workmanship a done to time 👍🏼

Before you begin

A little clarity.

Have a question about your own garden?
Talk it through with our team.

How much space does my gym equipment need?

Provide the equipment dimensions, movement and ceiling-height requirements. A floor footprint alone is not enough to confirm safe use; the final layout must allow for exercise and circulation.

Can I add a recovery area or ice bath?

The customiser includes a recovery zone and an outdoor ice-bath option. Equipment supply, loading and installation requirements are confirmed separately.

What does the starting price cover?

It is a base building guide calculated from Cedar’s published £1,250/m² starting rate, rounded up to the nearest £100. It is not a fixed installed price. Cedar Spaces is VAT registered. Your written quotation will show the VAT breakdown, foundations, services, installation, upgrades and specialist fit-out.

Can I use my garden room throughout the year?

Cedar’s rooms are insulated for year-round use. Heating, ventilation, glazing and the way you use the space are considered together in the final specification.

What about planning permission and building regulations?

The requirements depend on your property, location, dimensions and intended use. Check your project with the local authority before work begins. A customiser design does not establish permission or regulatory compliance.

How long does a build take?

Cedar’s published build guide is around one to three weeks for a straightforward room. Site preparation, specialist services and the agreed design can change the programme; confirm your start date and build schedule with the team.

Are the sizes internal or external?

The price examples and customiser show external room dimensions. Wall build-up reduces the usable interior, while roof edges, gutters, a canopy or decking may need additional space outside. Confirm exact internal dimensions, overall projections and access clearances in your agreed drawings.

Does the electrical package include the connection to my house?

Cedar’s room specification includes electrics and lighting, but the route, capacity, trenching and connection to your house depend on the site. Ask for the connection work, socket quantities and any additional electrical costs to be explicitly included in the written quote.

Should I prepare a base before ordering?

Speak to the team before arranging a base or groundworks. Cedar uses concrete foundations or ground screws depending on the project. An existing base, the garden levels, access and intended loads need to be reviewed at the site visit.
