Depends; how is your house network right now?
A mesh system could improve connection in the house and provide seamless connection to the back of the garden. If your house network is fine, a simple access point for the back of the garden will be cheaper.
Either way, an outdoor rated ethernet cable has to connect both solutions.

Another vote for cable. I'd actually say two cables, then if needs be you can use the second one for video or audio or something.

Getting the outdoor building/cabin electric sorted and thinking of network, I just about get WiFi signal from the front of the house to the back of the garden 35~ ish meters. Do I run a cat6 cable and get a WiFi access point in outdoor building or do I just go for a WiFi mesh system? The outdoor connection will be mainly for a laptop without ethernet connection, wireless printer and potentially a Mac mini/Mac with ethernet.
Not clued up enough to make a decision, I know wired connection more stable, but I won't be using it wired due to new Mac usb c only.
