Summerhouse in my garden

3 replies

Does anyone have a summerhouse in their garden, which they use for working from home?

Am currently considering buying a small summerhouse to work from as I'll probably be working from home at least 2-3 days a week even when CV has passed.

Just wondering if it's practical? Appreciate I'll need to have a heater in there in the winter, but aside from that is there anything else I'm missing? (my main fear is spiders making it their home 😫)

It would need some major insulation or you'd just be throwing money away trying to heat it

Hmm, I wonder whether the standards ones can be easily insulated or if I'm going to end up having to pay a fortune out for a fancy one!

You could easily insulate with rigid insulation board like 'celotex'
You'll need power too (not for the insulation!) and possibly a WiFi extender.
Kettle
Pillow
Good book
Blackout curtains
etc.
