Swimming Pool Rooms
This collection of articles showcases insulated garden rooms designed to sit seamlessly alongside swimming pools, creating the perfect poolside retreat. As you explore these projects, you’ll see how owners and designers have worked together to craft functional and stylish spaces tailored to the needs of poolside living.
While some examples focus on a single main room for entertaining and relaxing, many feature a divided floor plan to maximise functionality. These often include dedicated changing areas, a shower room for freshening up after a swim, a comfortable space for socialising, and a plant room to house the pumps and equipment essential for maintaining the pool.
Some owners have chosen to enhance their poolside space further by incorporating a gym, transforming the area into a complete fitness suite. Others have added saunas, steam rooms, or outdoor showers to create a luxurious spa-like experience.
The projects below are listed with the most recently published first, so scroll through to discover inspiring ideas for your own swimming pool room.
