What to clad garden office with?

[Mr Scruff]

Having a garden office built. The quote for cladding in cedar has just come back at £2,700!

I know that larch is popular, though still quite pricey.

Are the composite alternatives worth looking at? I've seen thermowood cladding, but hard to find cost comparisons.

Thanks

Thanks - as it stands the back will be clad in green box profile roofing sheets. It's side and front - I'd budgeted about £1k for it, so almost 3x that seems a lot!
