OUTDOOR: IN FOCUS<br />

<strong>THE</strong> A <strong>LIST</strong><br />

19<br />

avilions of splendour<br />

hat do Champneys’ spas,<br />

Duncan Bannatyne, Gloria<br />

Hunniford, the King of Luxembourg<br />

and hundreds of householders have<br />

in common? All have commissioned<br />

a luxury garden room from Oxfordshire-based<br />

Crown Pavilions.<br />

Indeed, across the world, discerning<br />

homeowners agree that when it<br />

comes to taking delivery of a garden<br />

room that’s a cut above the rest, it<br />

has to be Crown.<br />

Why is a Crown garden<br />

building so different?<br />

The sheer variety in the Crown collection<br />

is breathtaking – from lavish<br />

entertainment spaces through<br />

to sumptuous bespoke pavilions<br />

that are more like a second home.<br />

With Crown, a garden room can be<br />

anything you desire: a home office,<br />

spa or pool enclosure, tennis pavilion<br />

or home cinema, equipped with<br />

creature comforts including comfy<br />

sofas, dining suites, bars, food preparation<br />

areas, surround-sound systems<br />

and more.<br />

But a Crown garden room isn’t just<br />

for the summer; it is engineered for<br />

year-round comfort. Many designs<br />

come with double-glazing and bi-fold<br />

doors plus full insulation and underfloor<br />

heating. Blinds and soft furnishings<br />

are made from mould-resistant<br />

marine-grade acrylic canvas which<br />

won’t rot or fade over time. The deepfilled<br />

cushions are unbelievably comfy;<br />

even the zips and toggles are in a<br />

different league. Additionally, each<br />

pavilion is hand-crafted in Oxfordshire<br />

by skilled craftsmen.<br />

Why choose Crown?<br />

Crown’s mission to consistently go<br />

‘above and beyond the call’ results<br />

in products that surpass anything<br />

else on the market, right down to<br />

the smallest detail. You won’t find<br />

any knots in the timber cladding, for<br />

example. Handrails are wider and<br />

thicker, and all posts are laminated<br />

up to 12 times to minimise warping<br />

or cracking. Buildings are also<br />

installed on special rubber pads so<br />

none of the timber is in direct contact<br />

with the base, thus resisting rot.<br />

For roofs and walls, Crown insists<br />

on Western red cedar (recognised for<br />

‘<br />

A Crown garden room isn’t just for the summer;<br />

it is engineered for year-round comfort.<br />

its superb water-resistant qualities)<br />

or premium-grade, laminated European<br />

redwood. Doors and windows<br />

are made from premium solid timber<br />

to stand the test of time, without a<br />

uPVC frame in sight. Finally, each<br />

building undergoes scrutiny from a<br />

chartered structural engineer to ensure<br />

that everything is the correct<br />

‘<br />

size and in the right place, with a 30-<br />

year guarantee against rot and decay.<br />

It’s no wonder that Crown Pavilions<br />

is the first choice when it comes to<br />

commissioning a garden room.<br />
