You are probably way ahead of me and know that the latest garden must-have is the She Shed. The Daily Mail says so, so it must be true. And it sounds like rather a lovely idea.

They can be romantic and swish – a place to enjoy a glass of wine and a cosy chat, either in a traditional shed like this one,
