BillyOh Dorset Log Cabin

The Dorset Log Cabin comes in a range of sizes, two different wall thicknesses and with multiple upgrade options such as your log cabin treatment, double glazing or upgrading your floor and roof from robust 11mm Tongue and groove to 19mm. The Dorset is delivered as a flat-pack building made from strong interlocking tongue and groove boards. With all the fixtures and fittings included and comprehensive assembly instructions, the building is quick and easy to install.

This garden cabin has a reverse apex roof, offering you and your guests increased headroom. This reverse apex style is synonymous with log cabins, giving you a classic yet extremely stylish finish to your building. Due to the large, wide-opening windows in this garden room, it's a fantastic option for many uses, from a home office or studio to a small outhouse or simply a bright, airy space for you to relax. These large windows are complemented by a set of tall, fully glazed double doors, giving you even more beautiful natural light.

Options such as a garden bar can be added to your building; these are built with the same quality materials and are in keeping with the style of a traditional log cabin, transforming your building into a great hosting space. Customise your building further with our wide range of paints and create the BillyOh outdoor building for your garden.

Windows and Floors

Our BillyOh garden cabins are build using high-quality materials at every point of construction. Our wide-opening windows which offer you glorious views of your garden are made from safety-conscious SAN and can even be upgraded to double-glazed toughened glass.

Likewise, here at Garden Buildings Direct, we use high-quality European sourced timber for our garden cabins. The Dorset log cabin would make an excellent choice for the end of the garden or even a covered terrace

Options

And our outdoor buildings don't just come in a range of models. We also have loads of customisable features on the BillyOh Dorset such as thicker cladding for those who want a more cosy cabin in winter and a cooler cabin in the summer months. With options for cladding thicknesses, you can ensure the use of your relaxing retreat year-round.

Sizes

Our garden cabins also come in a wide range of popular sizes, such as the Dorset which is available in 4x2.5m models all the way up to 5x4m.

Style

At Garden Buildings Direct, there isn't just a range of log cabins, sheds, and summer houses, there's also a range of styles. And, unlike a pent log cabin, the roof style of the Dorset log cabin features a gorgeous reverse apex roof. Apex and reverse apex are both more traditional styles for log cabin roofs, unlike pent roofs which represent more modern styles.

Garden Offices and Storage Space

Our garden log cabins represent the perfect space to use as a garden office. With our cabin summerhouses, you'll find plenty of space to suit your needs, whether it's to build a garden studio or an outdoor home office. So for an economical option that doesn't require planning permission and an extension to your house, the BillyOh Dorset represents the perfect choice.

Tongue & Groove Cladding

Made from our, high-quality timber our tongue and groove panels are designed to offer a sturdy build as well as a tight seal to protect against water ingress and even harsh weather conditions. Tongue & groove cladding is featured in both our wooden sheds and log cabins, whereby the Dorset's roof boards and tongue & groove wall are designed to be weather-resistant and sturdy.

With this tongue and groove construction, we can offer our BilyOh 10-year guarantee against rot, insect infestation, and decay. And you can even upgrade, for example, your flooring thickness for intense usage (like a cabin home gym) or year-round use. And with pressure-treated options available (a form of treatment where chemicals are introduced to wood in a vacuum), you can count on your BillyOh garden building lasting for years to come.

Planning Permissions

Log cabins shouldn't require planning permission as long as they follow the following planning regulations:

• They don't intend to be used as a permanent living space.
• Their ridge height doesn't exceed 4m (for a dual-pitched roof) or 2.5 at the height of the eaves.
• They don't take up more than 50% of your garden space.
• They aren't built past the line of the principal of your property.

Luckily for you, the BillyOh Dorset is planning friendly. Even our larger buildings should only rely on your garden size to come under 'permitted development' on your land. Then, you can make the most of your garden space.

Assembly Kit - Building Your Dorset Log Cabin

At Garden Buildings Direct, we don't offer installation services. This is because our outdoor buildings have been measured and cut by our expert craftsmen. As such, your garden cabin will be provided with comprehensive assembly instructions. Simply gather a friend and some basic tools and you can have your Dorset log cabin up in no time.

What Is SAN Glazing?

Styrene Acrylonitrile (SAN) glazing is a high-strength rigid plastic glazing that’s UV-stable and shatter resistant. Aesthetically pleasing and safe to handle it comes at an attractive price point.

Toughened, double-glazed glass may be available as an upgrade. Features of toughened glass include added strength versus regular glass and double-glazing with a space between panes to reduce heat transfer.

How does my building arrive?

Log cabins are delivered via kerbside delivery as stacks of pre-assembled panels that require fitting together. All panels are designed to be smaller enough to fit down side entrances and even for transport through houses.
