“Were so glad we bought this cabin, its an amazing extension to the house but in the garden. We really enjoyed watching the recent Euros 2024 in the cabin. Its great to entertain friends or just have have lunch in a different environment while working from home. The order and delivery were all straight forward and the instructions really comprehensive and easy to follow. Constructing the cabin was such a great experience, including painting the outside/inside with Barrettine wood preserver and making the shelving from leftover tongue and groove boards. Thank you Tuin.”
“A great sized, solid cabin. I am really pleased with the service and quality of the product overall. Delivery was perfect and once I got going the build was relatively straight forward. I built the cabin on my own and it took around 3 days to complete (without treatment). I found the website blogs really helpful throughout the process and would fully recommend the Tuin Philip Log cabin.”
“Have just finished building this cabin we are very pleased with it. I am reasonably good at DIY, but this went up in a week including fitting insulation to roof and floor. It is for an art room; my wife has always wanted to have one. I also fancied having a go at building one. Im 69 so no spring chicken, but installed it all by myself apart from help to drop windows in. I would highly recommend Tuin. Delivery was also really good, very helpful driver put just where I wanted it. Take your time building and you will not go wrong.”
“A really nice sized summerhouse that went together easily (but I have put one up before). short logs near the window and door edge on the front face can make getting the window and door in a little bit of a challenge but one that can be overcome. The quality is really good overall and the service was first rate. The driver delivering the cabin was very helpful.”
“Purchased the Philip Log Cabin last year, my husband & a friend built it themselves , which according to him was like building a lego structure as the parts fitted so well. We got a concrete base built before we constructed it , but can say it is a lovely little building”
“I love my cabin - I bought it in summer 2021 so I'm nearly a year in and it looks great. My father in law and I built it over a couple of days; the instructions were easy and if anything it was a struggle against our own nature to overcomplicate things. The driver who delivered it was really nice and navigated our small cul-de-sac with ease with his forklift. My only regret (and this is no criticism of the cabin) is that I didn't have more time to dedicate to it, working full time at home with a very busy two year old. The consequence of that was that I had to ask for favours from family to help treat the cabin and, a year later, there are still only two coats on the exterior and one wall is starting to show its age from the sunlight. So the lesson is to make sure you can dedicate enough time to really focus on building it precisely and treating it thoroughly too. Internally it still looks amazing and I have electrics in, furniture is coming next week so it's becoming very homely. Where I have needed support with the build I found both the email correspondence and the out of hours email service really helpful. If you're curious about how much treatment to buy for the cabin, I bought four tins of the clear protect and with one coat left to do I'm expecting some to be left over (great if it needs to be touched up later on). It's not cheap but I can vouch for its effectiveness at repelling rainwater.”
“I'm delighted with my Philip log cabin - it arrived extremely well packed on a waterproof pallet, every part was there and in good condition when I unpacked into the rough layout on the floor (highly recommended to speed construction). Myself and a friend built it in on my concrete base in a day, with the roof tiles taking another half day. I have a spare pack of roof shingles and of floor boards left over so the supplies are generous. The wood quality and precision cuts are superb - everything fitted beautifully first time!”
