Father’s Day is fast approaching. You’ve given him way too many novelty socks, he’s already got a favourite watch and there’s only so much footy paraphernalia a guy needs. So, what about gifting him an exciting beginning of something new – get him started on his very own backyard Man Cave!

Outdoor rooms are a huge design trend at the moment, so there’s plenty of inspo out there. From simple, upcycled Man Sheds to innovative he-cabins, we’ve collected our favourite backyard designs to spark your creativity and get the ball rolling.
