I have a mesh network in the house a node of which is in the garden room. The signal in the garden room (GR) is very poor as the distance between the house and GR is about too far. ( I’ve done all the recommended moving around of nodes, but to no avail) I was thinking I could add in a power line adaptor to get an improved signal in the GR. Would be great to have some advice if this should work and recommendation on which power line adaptor to purchase.

My experience with powerline adapters has been less than stellar. You'd be much better off getting a direct ethernet cable to your garden room if that's at all possible. Of course that's not always possible, so if you're looking for a powerline adapter, you won't go far wrong with brands such as TP-Link and Netgear.
I'd recommend keeping any receipts etc, so then if you try it and it doesn't give you the speeds you're looking for, you can always return them.
