What drives the price
Size and glazing are the big ones - bi-fold and full-height glazing add cost fast. Roof style (apex costs more than pent), cladding (cedar vs painted), insulation thickness and acoustic treatment also move the number. Delivery to the Highlands, islands or NI can add a surcharge.
Ways to save
Choose a budget pod with a pent roof and standard glazing, self-assemble if you're practical, prepare your own base, and use code POD10 for 10% off your first order. 0% finance spreads the cost with no interest.
