Movie nights are the perfect way to relax, unwind and enjoy your home. With a premium garden cinema room, you can escape the distractions and chores of the main home and enjoy a luxury screening experience on demand, whenever you feel like it.

Bespoke-built to your needs and desires, a fully insulated and lined garden room will create the perfect luxury home cinema. Simply add your comfiest seating, a large projector screen and your favourite snacks. For a seriously elevated experience, you could even install a bar and toilet to avoid those annoying trips back to the house.  

What are garden cinema rooms?

Luxury garden cinema rooms, also known as home theatres or cinemas, are premium entertainment spaces designed for watching movies, TV shows, sports events, or playing video games in the comfort of your own outdoor space. These cinema rooms are typically equipped with high-quality audiovisual equipment, comfortable seating, and often include luxurious amenities to enhance the viewing experience.

Why have a cinema room in your garden?

From a purely practical and monetary point of view, a garden cinema room is an investment that will increase your overall property value and give you a home entertainment space that provides infinite enjoyment without the need to leave your home!  

It is also a space to enjoy precious time with family and friends, watching everything from Hollywood blockbusters to sporting events and even special home movies such as wedding videos or recordings from memorable holidays and trips. 

A garden cinema room is also incredibly versatile - should your needs or desires change in the future, you could easily reinvent the space into a home gym, children’s playroom and - with the relevant permissions - a commercial space for business (Burnham Studio Hair Salon - customer story)!

Benefits of a cinema room

Property value

The obvious immediate benefit of installing a garden cinema is that it will boost the value of your property and act as an interesting hook for any potential buyers should you choose to sell in the future. Our home is often one of the biggest assets we will own during our lifetimes, which is why it is always a safe investment to improve the interior or exterior. 

Enhanced lifestyle

Imagine it, you’ve lined up that movie you’ve been wanting to see for ages, and you’re able to escape the house for an exclusive screening in your very own back garden. Create some cocktails at the bar or bring in your favourite refreshments from the house and settle in for the opening credits atop the perfect, plush seating. 

Socialising with loved ones

Most of us lament our busy lifestyles and wish it was possible to spend more time with those closest to us. By adding a luxury home cinema to your garden, you’ll probably struggle to get rid of them! Having an entertainment space is a great way to include your loved ones in your downtime, and will take things like birthdays and Christmas to an entirely new level. 

Our cinema room features & considerations

Fully lined and insulated

Across our range of luxury garden buildings, you can choose between both traditional and contemporary building designs that can all be completely insulated and lined. Crafted by hand using only FSC© certified timber, all of our buildings have wonderful acoustic properties which makes for year-round comfort and enjoyment.  

Custom interior layout 

Whether you want to add a partition wall for toilet space or need some clever storage solutions that don’t disrupt the lines of the building, our expert design team can work with you to create the space of your dreams. There’s also an extensive menu of size options available across our range of buildings, so you won’t have to settle for something you don’t want.     

A choice of optional extras 

Want a Farrow & Ball paint palette? Cedar shingles for the roof? Heavy-duty flooring to support your comfortable cinema seats? From the minor details to the major ones, we actively encourage all of our customers to explore the range of optional extras that will make their building truly theirs.

FAQs

The size of garden cinema that you choose will depend on the size of your garden. We offer a choice of sizes, ranging from as small as 1.8 x 2.4m to as large as 4.6 x 9.0m. If garden space isn’t an issue, then you’ll want to base your size selection on what you plan to keep in there. With a garden cinema, you should consider the size of any seating you will be adding, and the proximity to your TV or projector screen.   

Up to 30m2 internal size is the magic number before planning permission; however, please check our planning permission article to give you a more comprehensive idea on why else you may need planning permission. Most garden buildings count as permitted development so won’t require planning permission, but there are a few helpful tips to abide by to avoid any unwanted aggravation further down the line.

Ask yourself a few questions - what kind of cinema do you want to have in your garden? Is it going to be purely just a space to sit and watch movies, or will you add things like a bar and toilet to create more of an overall entertainment space? Also, think about the exterior design of your cinema and how this will interact with your outdoor space - do you want something modern with lots of glass, or more traditional? Once you’ve considered those things, get in contact with our helpful sales designers, and they can help you design your perfect garden cinema.

Yes certainly, if you need more space or are planning on installing a toilet, we offer partitions in many of our designs.

This is not something we would recommend, especially with one of our timber buildings. Timber needs room to breathe, so putting it against your house will end up in damp problems further down the line. To preserve the longevity of your building, we recommend having at least a 30cm air gap around each side of your building.

We can’t do custom shapes; however we are very flexible on size, as long as they don’t exceed 30m2. If you can’t find the size you want in our standard sizes, please contact us to see if we can create the size you’re looking for.

We don’t offer plumbing, but we do offer an electrical pack with our buildings. During installation, a trusted electrician will be on site to fix plug sockets, lights, light switches, a consumer unit, and potentially a heater or aircon unit. The final connection between your mains electric and house will need to be arranged by yourself though.

If you choose an unlined design, we can either line and insulate it for you, or yes, absolutely you can insulate it yourself.

Yes, as part of our electric pack, we have the option of upgrading to have an air conditioning unit.

We provide a 10-year guarantee with most of our buildings. We also have a dedicated customer service team who will help you throughout the order process, and will be on-hand to help with any questions post-installation as well. Find out more about our 10-year guarantee.
