Many people associate garden buildings such as log cabins or summerhouses with being just for the summer months. While yes, it does get very dark early in winter and yes, it can be cold, wet and miserable, actually, compared to many other countries we have it pretty easy; our weather isn't extreme and generally we don't tend to have much snow.
Most of us who do have a garden building that we use to socialise in in the summer end up using it for storage of our summer garden accessories in the winter but why not consider using it all year around?
If you are thinking about adding a log cabin to your garden then it is also worth considering roof and floor INSULATION so that come the winter months your building keeps cosy and retains heat. You could also consider adding an electrical point in your cabin so that a small heater can be added as well as other electrical elements such as a TV or radio.
The great thing about having a log cabin or summerhouse in your garden is the potential to make it a whole other room perfect for escaping to.
Have a look at our other posts in the Winter Wellbeing blog series to get some ideas on how to best maximise your cabin and get the best return for your investment.
There are many ways to enjoy your cabin all year round -
- Install a Log burner
- House your a Hot Tub in your cabin
- How about your very own Sauna
- An all year BBQ/Grill Cabin
If you and your family prefer having your Christmas dinner at home why not have dinner in your Christmas Log Cabin? It would make the perfect backdrop for serving one of the most special meals of the year at your beautifully decorated table, complete with a view of the garden and no distractions from the house.
Winter nights could be spent snuggled up on comfortable furniture with plenty of winter throws and blankets drinking hot chocolate and whipped cream.
Just like in the summer months when your cabin doors are open and everything is bright and airy, your log cabin can act as the perfect place to host nights with friends or even just a casual catch up over a cuppa. Put away the summer accessories and pull out the winter comforts to give the cabin a contrasting look between seasons. You could even change up the soft furnishings so that there is a difference in decor between the warmer months and colder months.
There are plenty of Garden Storage Solutions should you decide you want to enjoy your log cabin all year round but require another place to keep garden furniture and equipment when not in use. We also provied side shed storage solutions which can be fitted on the outside of your cabin.
Log cabins are a great investment and add not just style to your garden but value to your property too. It makes sense to enjoy them all year round and treat them like an additional room and extension of your living space.
