Log Cabins With A Side Shed

A log cabin with side storage is a popular type of small house or cabin that features an attached shed or storage area on one or both sides of the main living space. Overall, cabins with side sheds offer a versatile and practical additional living space for those who value simplicity, functionality and the natural world. 

Important Considerations

Once you have chosen a log cabin, you will need to decide where to place it in your garden or backyard. You will need to make sure that the area is level and that there is enough space for the log cabin with a side shed .

When choosing a specially designed cabin with a side shed, you will need to consider the following factors: 

• Size: Our cabins with side sheds come in a variety of sizes, so you will need to choose one that fits the space you have available.
• Purpose: Will you be using the garden building for extra storage, as a workshop, as an office or as a playroom ? 
• Budget: Our cabins with side sheds range in price, so you will need to choose one that fits your budget.
• Style: Cabins with side sheds come in a variety of styles, so you will need to choose one that matches the style of your home and garden.
• Finish: Choose a storage log cabin with a finish that is weather-resistant and easy to maintain. For a small extra cost, you can add EPDM rubber roofing and roof shingles to maximise insulation and durability.

We have a number of log cabins specifically designed for these purposes. Since their inception, they have become one of our most popular designs.

Planning Permission & Building Regulations

Keep in mind that both planning permission and building regulations may apply to your side storage project. While we offer a brief overview of these topics, it's a good idea to consult your local planning office and Building Control if you're uncertain. They can clarify whether your cabin with a side shed requires any approval.

Our cabins with side sheds come in a variety of sizes and styles, so you can find one that fits your needs and budget. They are made from high-quality spruce wood, renowned for its ease of construction, sustainability and durability.

Diverse Structures, Sizes & Designs

All our log cabins are manufactured to high standards using fully interlocking logs with the following log thickness options to choose from:

• 28mm
• 34mm
• 44mm
• 68mm
• 90mm

Our log cabins are available in many sizes, with dimensions starting from 4 x 3 metres and up to 6 x 4 metres. You can also choose between single or double doors and windows, depending on your needs. If none of these standard sizes works for your application, then use the custom-size a cabin form to let us know what you require, and we can put a quote together. Contact the office for more details.

The Meribel and Livata garden log cabins are essentially the same, apart from the roof structure, as we have found there is a need for both a pent roof and apex roof option. There is no great advantage to either, as it comes down to personal choice as to whether you go for the more contemporary pent (flat) roof or the more traditional reverse apex. In either case, the glazing is supplied as plain glass, and the Georgian bars are an optional feature.

Optional Add-Ons To Enhance Your Garden Log Cabin

While our timber log cabins with a shed are constructed with tongue and groove interlocking logs for durability, there are other enhancements to make them even stronger. We offer a range of optional add-ons that will improve insulation, enhance the energy efficiency, and ensure the longevity of your cabin with side shed [“a side”].

One of the many benefits of cabins with side sheds is the additional storage space and workspace they provide. This can be especially useful for outdoor enthusiasts who need outdoor space to store gear like bikes, kayaks, or fishing and gardening equipment. The storage shed can also be used as a workshop for hobbies like woodworking or metalworking.

Here are some of the additional benefits of using a log cabin with a side shed: 

• Extra storage space: Our cabins with side sheds offer a lot of extra storage space. You can use the side shed to store gardening tools, garden supplies or other items that you don't want to keep inside your house.
• Separate space: Our side sheds can be used as a separate space for a workshop, office or playroom. This can be helpful if you need to have a quiet space to work or if you want to keep your children's toys out of the main house.
• Aesthetically pleasing: Our cabins with side sheds can add a touch of beauty to your garden or backyard. They can also be used to create a more private space in your outdoor area.
• Longevity: We specialise in constructing strong garden buildings with groove timber and interlocking logs designed to stand the test of time. Optional add-ons like EPDM rubber roofing and roof shingles further enhance durability and insulation.
• Value for money: Our log cabin sheds offer a great way to increase the value of your property, making them a great long-term investment.
• Easy to maintain: You only need to maintain your garden cabin with a side shed every 6 to 12 months, depending on the season. This can be done by applying our timber wood treatment to the exterior and patching up any structural damage, if there is any.

Another advantage of a log cabin with a side shed in the UK is its flexibility and practicality. The shed can be customised to fit the owner's needs and preferences and can even be added on to or expanded as needed. Some cabins with side sheds also feature covered porches or decks, which provide additional outdoor living space and can be used for entertaining or relaxation.

Here are some of the key features of our cabins with side sheds:

• Durable Timber: Our cabins with side sheds are made from sustainably sourced natural spruce wood, which is a durable material that can withstand the elements.
• Three double-glazing standards: We offer windows with standard, double and triple glazing, allowing you to tailor the energy efficiency of your log cabin. While triple or double-glazed windows may require more of an investment, they pay off significantly in the long run.
• Five standards for windows and doors: We cater to various performance, durability, and aesthetic needs for your side storage log cabin. You can choose between the Silverline, Superior, Premium, uPVC and Residential standards.
• 19 mm tongue and groove floor and roof boards: The tongue and groove design of our log cabins ensure excellent structural integrity.
