Essential Guides
Planning
Planning Permission & Regulations for Glamping Cabins.
Our log cabins are made from FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) certified Scandinavian Redwood. Our modern lodges have the option of being cladded with Marley Board, which is virtually maintenance free, meaning you don’t have to worry about having to re-treat or paint your cabin.
What is a BBQ Cabin?
Our BBQ Cabins are inspired by traditional Scandinavian grillkota (“grill house”) that were used by reindeer herders to provide a sheltered space during harsh winters. With a central grill for cooking, grillkota cabins provided a space for communal cooking that are still in use in the modern day.
Are Camping Cabins similar to bell tents and glamping pods?
No, bell tents are made from canvas and are only used for glamping in the dryer seasons. Glamping pods are made from wood but have a similar structural shape to traditional tents and usually consist of just one room. Camping Cabins are inspired by traditional Scandinavian grillkota, can have extensions fitted for additional rooms and can be used all year round.
Are your log cabins waterproof?
Yes, our camping and glamping cabins are watertight due to their structure and insulated roofs and floors. This makes them an ideal choice for all year round glamping!
Where can you deliver your log cabins to?
We deliver and install our log cabins across the UK! Our factory is based in Derbyshire, where all our cabins are made, then sent to businesses across the country. Wherever you are in the UK, we can get a cabin to you!
Can you make a custom cabin for my business?
Our aim is to provide businesses across the UK with high quality timber buildings. Our cabins can be customised with extensions and partitions. However if you are looking for a more bespoke log cabin, our team can provide you with a free quote.
