Small Log Cabins

A small wooden cabin is ideal for smaller gardens, maximising functionality without overwhelming your garden space. They can serve as additional living space to relax, a garden office for work, or a shed to store your garden equipment.

They are also a beautiful addition to any garden and can provide a sense of peace and tranquillity.

With many different types of small garden cabins available, you can find one that fits your needs and budget. Some log cabins are simple and basic, while others are more luxurious, functional and feature-rich. Choose from a variety of sizes to find one that fits your unique garden. 

The Perfect Combination of Practicality & Durability

Small log cabins are becoming increasingly popular as they offer a number of advantages over traditional brick-and-mortar buildings. They are more affordable, easier to build and more environmentally friendly. 

These garden log cabins are also very versatile and can be used for a variety of purposes, including:

• Garden shed
• Home garden office
• Playroom
• Art studio
• Workshop
• Home gym
• Game room
• Hobby room
• Garden pub

Choose From a Variety of Wall Thicknesses To Suit Your Needs

Our insulated log cabins are crafted with durability in mind, with various sizes of log thickness to choose from:

• 28mm
• 34mm
• 44mm
• 68mm
• 90mm

The log thickness directly impacts the insulation of your timber building. Thicker logs offer better insulation for year-round use, as well as the potential for larger windows.

This means that options like 68 mm and 90 mm logs allow for more natural light, making them ideal for spaces used throughout the year, such as summer houses or a garden office.

Optional Add-Ons for Insulation & Durability

Fully insulated garden rooms are essential to protect your structure from bad weather and normal wear and tear. To prolong the lifespan of your small cabin and to optimise for all year-round use, we offer the following add-ons:

• Double-glazed windows and doors (With three glazing options)
• Roof shingles
• EPDM rubber roof for optimal weather protection
• Guttering kits 
• Wood treatment

These add-ons will insulate log cabin sheds and ensure they look as good as new for the longest possible time.     

What You Need To Know About Planning Permission

While some larger garden buildings may require planning permission, smaller cabins under 2.5 metres high usually don’t require approval from local authorities. 

To be on the safe side, we recommend looking at the UK government’s planning permission portal to double-check the relevant building regulations and permissions that pertain to you and your needs.
