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 />
