What kind of windows and doors will you need? Will they be double or triple glazed? What style should they be in keeping with the overall look of the garden room? Heating and cooling Our outdoor playhouses come complete with one of two different types of treatment. The first, dip treatment, guarantees against rot for a substantial 10 years, provided the playhouse is annually re-treated with a high-quality wood preservative. Many of our impressive two-story playhouses come with handrails on ladders, providing extra support for safer climbing. Additionally, doors are equipped with either magnetic catches or specially designed no-trap hinges, eliminating the risk of fingers getting caught. If you’re planning on using the space for music or study, you’ll need to make sure it’s well insulated from external noise. Windows and doors

A quality garden playhouse is a perfect solution for giving your kids a safe space to play without having to leave the garden - giving both you and them peace of mind. A garden model will probably be the one outdoor toy your child will remember forever; a home for their imaginative play. Whatever age they are, children can exercise and entertain themselves in an outdoor playhouse whilst developing their minds, all within a safe distance of your own home. If you’d like to lust after more grown-up garden dens, don’t miss our My Place feature in our July ‘Taste’ issue, which features willow spheres, wendy houses and willow huts like the one above which belongs to Emma Wise ( @quintonrectorygardens). Our outdoor wooden playhouses are a wonderful investment for your garden and family, providing a dedicated space for outdoor play where your children are guaranteed to make lots of wonderful memories. Think about where the den will fit best in your garden. Try to find a spot that’s away from other outdoor sitting or dining areas so that it’s a separate area just for kids. Step Four: Design the concept

Got a tree with a reasonably solid branch at least ten feet off the ground? You’ve got yourself an instant den. Buy a mosquito canopy (even IKEA sells them these days), hang it from the branch, drape the curtains about elegantly and fill the space inside the canopy with cushions. Add a few fairy lights and you have your own (mosquito proof) reading nook. Our outdoor buildings are designed as places where your children's imaginations can run wild. A kid's outside playhouse can transform into a kitchen and dining room complete with a table and chairs. Or a splash of paint and a captain's wheel could turn a tower play house like the Bunny Max into a pirate ship looking out over a vast ocean. A garden playhouse is a blank slate for your toddler to decorate with their mind. As such we also offer customisable wall colours and trim on many of our builds. Durable Construction All wooden elements are made from either premium Redwood Pine or Douglas Fir timber, with roofs made from tough plywood and hardwood, ensuring that your outdoor playhouse stands firm for many years. The planed timber also undergoes a high-pressure treatment to help prevent fungal decay. Metal fixings are domed or countersunk for safety and made from stainless steel to resist rust and corrosion, too. Ensure you don't lose your scope and Pattern cards by keeping them in a reusable, drawstring jute bag.
