The booming staycation market is prompting many families with some extra garden space to consider adding a self-contained annexe that can be rented out as a holiday lodge.
JML Garden Rooms built this two-bedroom annexe for clients in St Andrews. Their customers recognised the potential to replace an old garage with a highly insulated, high-spec annexe, allowing them to host family and rent it out to holidaymakers, generating additional income.
Before contacting JML Garden Rooms, the clients had already worked with an architect to draw up plans for the 44 sqm annexe. However, JML could have managed this stage as part of their turnkey service, as they have an in-house design team to create bespoke designs and can handle the planning process if required.
As shown in these images, the result is a stylish, high-spec holiday lodge. The layout makes efficient use of space, allowing for two double bedrooms.
According to the JML Garden Rooms team, the new annexe not only provides a steady income from holiday lets but has also added value to the property.
Experts in SIPs Construction
JML Garden Rooms are specialists in building with Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), a highly durable and energy-efficient construction method. SIPs are known for their excellent thermal performance, creating well-insulated buildings that are comfortable to live in year-round. By using SIPs, JML Garden Rooms are able to create structures that are not only strong and long-lasting but also highly energy-efficient, helping to reduce heating and cooling costs. This method is particularly beneficial for holiday lodges, ensuring that they are comfortable and cost-effective to run, in all seasons.
Customer Feedback on JML Garden Rooms
I now have a beautiful two-bedroom garden annexe, built by the JML team. I can highly recommend this company for their high standard of construction, and, to be honest, for how pleasant they were throughout the whole process!
From my initial meeting with John to discuss the project, through to all the team involved, it was a great experience, despite what could have been a stressful time. Of course, there were unforeseen challenges along the way, but these were handled efficiently and with good cheer.
The fact that you and your team were able to stick to the estimated build costs at every stage and complete the project ahead of schedule is a real credit to your organisation and efficiency. It was also a huge relief for us. We couldn't have asked for better contractors. Now, instead of a large garage full of junk, we have a valuable investment in our garden!
Thank you, JML!"
