Here’s a brief overview of our log cabins for sale.
Traditional Log Cabins
A traditional log cabin is the most common and classic type of outdoor building. It features a simple and elegant design, with a pitched roof and interlocking logs. Log cabins are suitable for all seasons and provide good insulation and durability.
These insulated log cabins come in many sizes and shapes and can be customised with different windows, doors and accessories. Traditional-style log cabins can be used as a garden office, a hobby room, a guesthouse or anything else you can imagine.
Modern Log Cabins
These are the more contemporary and stylish styles, designed not only for aesthetics but also to maximise natural sunlight. Our modern log cabins have a flat roof and a sleek design with smooth and clean lines. They are ideal for creating a minimalist and chic look in your garden.
They typically have large windows and doors. You can use our cabins as a summer studio, garden gym, spa, "man cave", or any other purpose that requires a modern and comfortable environment.
Corner log cabins
These wooden log cabins are designed to fit in the corner of your garden area. Corner log cabins have a pentagonal or hexagonal shape, with two walls that are perpendicular to each other. They are perfect for optimising outdoor space to suit different needs, like storing garden equipment or a home theatre.
Corner log cabins boast a snug and compact design to create a cosy and intimate atmosphere. You can use this extra living space as a reading nook, meditation spot, or any other activity that requires privacy and tranquillity.
Multi-room log cabins
These types of log cabins are designed with more than one garden room inside. Multi-room log cabin styles have a larger and more complex design, with partitions and doors that create different areas.
Wooden garden cabins with multiple rooms also offer more options and possibilities, with functional space for different purposes. You can use them as a hobby room with a display area attached, a garden shed, or extra storage space for non-perishable food.
These are some of the main types of DIY garden log cabins for sale on our website. You can also browse our website’s gallery to see examples of how other customers have used theirs.
The key elements of garden buildings in our catalogue may vary depending on the type and its intended use, but some common features include.
Size & Design
Our garden buildings come in various shapes and sizes, from small sheds to large, multi-room structures. The design can also vary, ranging from traditional to contemporary. For example, your garden space can be filled with a small log cabin that will negate any requirement for planning permission.
Roofing
The roof of a garden building can be made from a variety of materials, including shingles or EPDM. The type of roofing will depend on the design, climate and budget. The roof design can be divided into three main categories: apex roof, reverse apex roof and pent log cabin.
Windows & Doors
Windows are available in various sizes and orientations. There are many standard designs incorporating a single door and double doors.
Upon request, you can upgrade to residential-grade doors and windows. These can be full, half or three-quarter glazed, all with double-glazed windows. Our windows and doors are supplied with glass unless otherwise stated in the product description.
Insulation
Floor and roof insulation are important features of a building, especially if it will be used year-round as a dedicated space for work. Insulation helps to regulate the temperature inside the building, keeping it cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Our double and triple-glazing add-ons, plus our roof shingles and EPDM roof covers, are excellent investments to improve insulation. At a slightly higher initial cost, they will save you money in the long run as you pay less for heating and cooling costs.
Electrical & Plumbing
The intended use and building code requirements will determine if you need electricity and plumbing. For example, if you’re using our range of log cabins for a dedicated workspace or additional living space, you may require running water or light fixtures. On the other hand, if you are using it for additional living space, you may require plumbing for a small kitchenette or bathroom.
Foundation
A sturdy foundation is essential for any garden building to ensure stability and longevity. The type of foundation will depend on the size and weight of the building, as well as the soil type and drainage in the area. If you’re unsure, ask one of our recommended expert installers.

Whether you want to know more about our professional installation service, DIY kits, or customisation options, we've got you covered. Take a look at our FAQs below for more information on our garden log cabins for sale.
What is a garden cabin?
A garden cabin is a prefabricated building that is made from timber logs. Log cabins are typically constructed using a tongue-and-groove system to make them very strong and durable.
Wooden garden cabins are typically made from thick logs cut and treated to withstand the elements. They may have windows and doors to provide light and ventilation.
Some garden log cabins have a terrace or other outdoor space, making them ideal for relaxing or entertaining guests.
Can I customise your log cabin styles?
Yes, there are many ways to customise our log cabins for sale and upgrade your outdoor space for year-round use.
Standard Customisation
You have multiple choices in our standard garden room kits depending on the model, including:
- Roof covering
- Finish
- Glazing
- Log size
Customising Existing Models
If a standard design doesn't work for you, we can alter door and window positions on our garden cabin kits to suit your needs. Or, if you like a garden lodge design but the size is not practical for your needs, we can customise the dimensions.
Bespoke Log Cabins
We can also create a completely bespoke log cabin with you. Please contact us with all the details, such as the layout, if you’re interested in double doors and the preferred window combinations.
What should I consider before buying a log cabin for my garden ?
If you are thinking about adding a garden log cabin shed to your property, there are a few things you should keep in mind:
- The size of the cabin should be appropriate for the size of your garden.
- The location of the log cabin shed should be in a spot that gets plenty of sunlight.
- The cabin should be made from durable materials that can withstand the elements.
- The cabin should be properly sealed to prevent leaks.
- The log cabin shed should be ventilated to prevent mould and mildew.
- The price of garden log cabins can range from a few thousand pounds to tens of thousands. Set a budget before you start shopping so that you don't overspend.
What are your available log sizes for garden cabins ?
When you buy a log cabin from us, you can choose from a variety of log thicknesses including:
- 28mm
- 34mm
- 44mm
- 68mm
- 90mm
Do I need planning permission to install a garden log cabin?
Depending on the size and placement of your garden log cabin, you may require planning permission from your local council. Structures under 2.5 metres in height, like most of our log cabins, generally do not require permission. They fall within permitted development rules. However, it’s always best to check with your local authority.
What is the process for installing garden cabins ?
Our outdoor buildings can be purchased pre-made or built from scratch, with the option to connect with a network of trusted installers. Plus, our trucks are equipped with HIAB cranes to unload straight onto your driveway or path for easy installation.
If you are a DIY enthusiast building your own, you will need to purchase the logs, as well as the tools and materials necessary to assemble your DIY log cabin kits. You may also want to hire a professional to help you with the construction process.
Once your perfect log cabin is built, you can decorate it to your liking. You may want to add furniture, plants or other accessories to make it more comfortable and improve its functionality.
What is double-glazing and do I need it ?
Double glazing features two glass panes with an air or gas-filled gap in between. This layer improves insulation, which reduces heat loss and boosts energy efficiency.
Most of our log cabin range is available in three double-glazing standards. Each option offers much better levels of heat and sound insulation than single-glazed glass or perspex found in lower-grade products.
When making your choice on glazing and wall thickness, consider its usage. What time of year do you want to use it?
- If you are planning a summer house with somewhere to store your garden furniture, a thinner wall with standard glazing will suffice.
- On the other end of the scale, with all-year-round usage, a thicker wall with premium glazing makes far more sense to ensure indoor comfort.
Also, consider your location. Southern counties generally have milder winters than those north of the Midlands.
How do I maintain my garden log cabin?
Log cabins require very little maintenance to ensure their functionality. However, there are a few things you can do to keep your log cabin in good condition.
Treat the Timber
To protect your insulated log cabin from the elements, apply a high-quality wood preservative every few years. This helps prevent moisture damage, rot and insect infestations.
Clean the Cabin
Wash the exterior with a mild detergent and water. Inside, dust and vacuum frequently, especially if it’s used for storage or as additional living space.
Inspect the Cabin
Inspect your garden log cabin regularly for any signs of damage. Repair any damage to the roof, windows, doors or walls immediately to prevent it from worsening.
