    It's all in hand.
    Why not get one of those wooden chalet things that come ready made, doubles as a comfy retreat / guest home. All you need is a concrete base and assembled in a day.

      Already been dismissed as not sound proof enough. The little loves like to make a racket in the garden in the summer and it would be out of the frying pan and into the fire.

                    You'll find that open windows in the summer aren't very sound proof either.... unless you're going for an air conditioned solution

                      If you're worried about noise, I don't understand why you aren't simply having your office built the other side of the kitchen garden, just off the far east wing of the main house? That should be far enough away from the main lawn to be fairly quiet.
