Pavilions of splendourhat do Champneys’ spas, Duncan Bannatyne, Gloria
Hunniford, the King of Luxembourg and hundreds of householders have in common? All have commissioned a luxury garden room from Oxford-shire-based Crown Pavilions.
Indeed, across the world, discern-ing homeowners agree that when it comes to taking delivery of a garden room that’s a cut above the rest, it has to be Crown.
The sheer variety in the Crown col-lection is breathtaking – from lav-ish entertainment spaces through to sumptuous bespoke pavilions that are more like a second home. With Crown, a garden room can be anything you desire: a home office, spa or pool enclosure, tennis pavil-ion or home cinema, equipped with creature comforts including comfy sofas, dining suites, bars, food prep-aration areas, surround-sound sys-tems and more.
But a Crown garden room isn’t just for the summer; it is engineered for year-round comfort. Many designs come with double-glazing and bi-fold doors plus full insulation and under-floor heating. Blinds and soft furnish-ings are made from mould-resistant marine-grade acrylic canvas which won’t rot or fade over time. The deep-filled cushions are unbelievably com-fy; even the zips and toggles are in a different league. Additionally, each pavilion is hand-crafted in Oxford-shire by skilled craftsmen.

Why is a Crown garden building so different?
Why choose Crown?
Crown’s mission to consistently go ‘above and beyond the call’ results in products that surpass anything else on the market, right down to the smallest detail. You won’t find any knots in the timber cladding, for example. Handrails are wider and
thicker, and all posts are laminated up to 12 times to minimise warp-ing or cracking. Buildings are also installed on special rubber pads so none of the timber is in direct con-tact with the base, thus resisting rot.
For roofs and walls, Crown insists on Western red cedar (recognised for
its superb water-resistant qualities) or premium-grade, laminated Euro-pean redwood. Doors and windows are made from premium solid timber to stand the test of time, without a uPVC frame in sight. Finally, each building undergoes scrutiny from a chartered structural engineer to en-sure that everything is the correct
size and in the right place, with a 30-year guarantee against rot and decay.
It’s no wonder that Crown Pavilions is the first choice when it comes to commissioning a garden room.
