Planning Permission in Wales

Put Simply

Q. Do I need ‘Planning Permission’ for a Garden Building in Wales…?

A. In most cases you will not need planning permission to build a Garden Room from Sunflower Lodges & Garden Rooms

Did you know that Most Garden Buildings under 2.5 Metres high do not need ‘Planning Permission’

As of 2024, Garden Rooms are considered to be ‘Permitted Development’ and do NOT require Planning Permission if:

The building is to be placed less than 2.0m from the boundary of the property the maximum overall height should not exceed 2.5m from existing ground level
It has an internal floor area of less than 30m²

If you do comply with the above criteria, garden buildings up to an internal floor area of 30 square metres are generally exempt from planning and building regulations (Except when the structure is to be used for sleeping accommodation)

Whether you use your garden room for business, pleasure, relaxation, or fitness, it becomes a place where you choose to be and are proud of.
