The RHS Garden Retreat
From £22,000.00
The RHS Garden Retreat – A fully insulated and doubled glazed shed under a vaulted living or ‘green’ roof. With windows on three sides light floods in, making this shed an idea place to work, pursue hobbies, or a place to relax & enjoy the garden from.
This beautiful Posh shed is fully insulated & double glazed, under a vaulted living or ‘green’ roof with a cedar shingled roof surround. The vaulted area is slightly offset allowing a run off to the right hand side of the shed.
Green roofs boost the thermal performances of structures while supporting insects and wildlife, thus mitigating the previously uncultivated space the shed may have occupied.
Black 110mm guttering is fitted with run off to ground.
Please note that the roof is left as a vaulted area, planting medium or plants are not included.
The front has three full height windows, whilst both sides have a double window with one opening window, this enables light to flood in making it a great place to work, pursue your hobby in, or a lovely place to relax and enjoy the garden from.
Entry to the shed is via the covered porch (4ft square): this porch offers shade and shelter, and an integral seat provides a place to sit and enjoy the garden.
The Posh Shed Company is delighted to have worked with the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) to develop this design. To find out more about the RHS click here
This shed can be seen at RHS Garden Wisley within Battleston Hill.

The RHS Garden Retreat Roof Build
The construction of the roof means that this design has the unique capability to have a living roof planted on top whilst at the same time having cedar shingles around the edge to give that rustic feel. The cedar shingles are blue grade (top quality) the roof pitch of the cedar section of the roof is 45 degrees
Internally the roof is vaulted giving as much of the external height into the internal area and creating a feeling of space. The vaulting is achieved by 4 trusses that support the whole roof; these trusses are made from 50mm x 100mm par redwood with shaped supports at the corners.
The internal face of the roof is a plywood lining giving a great surface for further decoration if required.
Green roof section
Central to the roof is an area of flat (set at 3 degrees run off to the right-hand side) this section has solid insulation panels with a further plywood layer on top. This layer is set down 200mm from the ridge and is covered with a single piece of EDPM rubber. This is completely waterproof and is the same material used as high-quality pond liner. A stainless-steel drainage edge allows water to flow though a hidden gully and then to ground. This section can either be left as it is or is ready for planting up as a ‘green’ roof needing 150mm of planting medium and then planting with a suitable planting arrangement.
Cedar section
Surrounding the planting area is a pitch roof section, again with solid insulation panels and a further plywood lining on the outside. This is then covered with a waterproof membrane and finished with cedar shingles, the corner ridges and top ridge are finished with cedar
Black 110mm gutter is fitted with run off to ground.
