DGS were fantastic from start to finish. We’re so happy with our garden office and the customer service, attention to detail and professionalism from Sophie, Dan and the team was there throughout. Wholeheartedly recommend Design Garden Spaces!
Outstanding Quality and Service We couldn't be happier with our new garden room! From start to finish, Dan and both Sophie's were absolutely fantastic to work with. They took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and delivered a truly bespoke service, creating a garden room that perfectly matched our vision. The quality of the build is outstanding and is loved by the whole family, serving as an office, cinema room, gym and guest room. The attention to detail, communication throughout the project, and professionalism of the whole team were second to none. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a bespoke garden room. Thanks to Design Garden Spaces for creating such an amazing space that we'll enjoy for years to come!
Could not ask for better service, from start to finish Dan, Sophie and the rest of the team were great! A true great experience which now offers us great space in the garden to work from! Would highly recommend to anyone
We are beyond thrilled with the incredible work Dan and his team did on our garden office! It’s rare to find a team that combines such high-level technical skill with a genuine, personal touch. They were consistently responsive and kept us perfectly informed with clear dates, making the whole process entirely stress-free. What truly sets them apart, however, is their ability to deliver premium features like the stunning skylight—a bespoke addition that so many other companies simply don't offer. It has completely transformed the space, flooding it with natural light and giving it that high-end, architectural feel we were looking for. The quality of the finish is breathtaking, and the entire journey was a total pleasure. We genuinely couldn’t have asked for anything more—thank you!
From start to finish, Dan and his team were fantastic! We absolutely adore our new garden room and cannot thank DGS enough for all their hard work. We wanted a space where we could exercise, but also a place where we could relax and socialise with friends...and boy did DGS deliver!! Dan is clearly an expert in his field and his care and attention to detail is amazing. He made sure to consult us at every stage to ensure he was meeting our needs. We even had a change of design mid way through, which was handled with ease and professionalism. To be honest, it has worked out better than our original design. A special mention to both Sophie's. (Sophie) office was always on hand to deal with any of our enquiries or to inform us of any delays. Whilst Sophie (carpenter) was on sight nearly every day, working in all weathers, to ensure the room was built to the best standard possible. If you're looking for a bespoke garden room, Dan and his team at Design Garden Spaces are a must. You will get exactly what you want and more. Thank you again. Josh and Samantha
We couldn’t be happier with our garden room – it’s absolutely stunning and finished to the highest standard. Dan is a total perfectionist, and it shows in every detail. From the initial consultation to the final touches, he was professional, friendly, and completely focused on making sure everything was just right. The craftsmanship is second to none, and the space has completely transformed how we use our garden. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about their work and takes pride in delivering perfection, Dan is your guy. Highly recommend!
We are over the moon with our bespoke garden room / gym. Dan and the team were excellent from start to finish incorporating changes to the design, a large roof light, helping us with choice of materials and ensuring that we were able to keep an established apple tree by incorporating it into the decking section. The room looks great - we are so chuffed with it! Thank you!
