“I found the Tuin shepherds hut good value and well built. I feel the main supporting timbers should be tanalised which they are not..Tuin do not supply a traditional curved corrugated roof system but I did find a company who will make to order, they are Accord Steel cladding Ltd in the West Midlands. It makes all the difference.”
“The service we have received from the time of order to delivery has been excellent. They have been very quick to respond to any queries we have had and the delivery drivers were most helpful . We are still in the process of building our caravan, but all is going well and it looks to be a sturdy hut, which will complement the ethos of our campsite. I would recommend buying from Tuin to anyone.”
“Just got to say what an excellent product, had a couple of family weekends treating every piece with a a Barretine wood preservative before assembly , what a great way to work out what and where everything goes before you start assembly, Paint and read the instructions makes it a light bulb moment when you build,,,, i found everything to be very robust in manufacture and nothing left wanting, ever screw, bracket, door latch plate and 2 of every driver bit in the kit, just remember to switch your drill in to screwdriver mode and they will last the whole build,”
“I would not hesitate to buy another Tuin product. The neatly flat packed hut arrived via an excellent delivery service. Good instruction manual but take a while to familiarize yourself with each stage. Helps to organize and label parts before starting construction. Hut was fully erected over 2 bank holiday weekends ready for painting. Great quality product; extremely attractive in the garden. Well worth the money.”
“I chose this Shepherds hut/gypsy wagon as I had been looking quite a while for something like this. I am most certainly happy that I chose this model from Tuin. The service I received was excellent from ordering the product to the delivery man. Everything happened when it was said it would & the delivery man was really helpful getting it as close to where we needed it placing. The shepherds hut itself is fantastic. This was our lockdown project & it took us quite a while to get it built (just me & my husband). It is excellent quality & I really love this little retreat I have for myself. Just finishing off the painting as this year it is just going to be used as a summer house but next year will probably fit it all out properly. If you are thinking of buying a shepherds hut I would definitely recommend this one & the company.”
“I have to say, I'm impressed with the quality of the shepherds hut. The timber is good quality and fits together very well. Once I'd finally put it together (with a little help) it feels like a really sturdy garden building. The neighbours have already commented on it 'looking fab' which is always a bonus as we wanted something that fitted in with the area. It's definitely a talking point! Our build was a little non-standard as I didn't take the wheels and sat it on the base pads. I capped off the bottom with OSB and insulated the floor as it'll be used as an office and at its full height (with wheels) may have been a bit intrusive for the neighbours. The only improvements would be that I'd prefer the instructions to be a little more in depth, generally they do require you to read ahead and could do with a bit more information when you have to repeat an action. It would also be good if there were a few more torx 15 in the set as I think I got two and it seems to be the most used end. I'm really looking forward to getting the electrics in and finishing it off, it'll have pride of place in our garden for years to come.”

I would like more comprehensive installation notes I am a retired technician engineer very practical but would like more dimensions printed on guide. We would pay for pretreated kit from Tuin but did not seem to get this option either . otherwise brilliant product great trusted company .Thanks Leslie J Curwood”
“I chose Tuin because of the quality of the wood. I was concerned about delivery and installation as my house is not easily accessible but it all worked out fine. Am very pleased with it and planning insulation etc. Would recommend Tuin and Philip Osorio for installation.”
