This large cabin lends itself for sharing with your family which has to be a good thing in this modern age. Just do a little brainstorming and you will be surprised by its uses.
No Charge for Solid Nordic Timber with Strength As Standard
One of the keys to a top quality garden cabin is in the quality of wood used and this is where we can learn from the expertise of the Swedes. They have known for years that Nordic slow growing timber is ideal for outdoor buildings. This is because the timber grows very slowly ensuring that the grain in the wood is tightly compacted. This helps to make it more stable in the varying British weather and the number one choice for these Trentan ‘Hungerford’ wooden cabins. As important this timber only come from sustainable sources and is properly kiln dried.
The Key To A Good Cabin is the Quality of Materials
Being soundly built with Nordic timber and made in a controlled environment is very important. The construction of the doors and windows, which are upgraded to DGP+, play a great part in a cabin so it’s vital they can match up to the sturdiness of the timber used. And you will find that these doors and windows will deliver in ‘spades’. Specially designed and laminated in parts of the doors and windows this gives unrivalled strength. This resists the natural movement of the timber. Combined with adjustable hinges (not cheap Chinese ones) and weather sills they can face everything the UK weather throws at them. Peace of mind is supplied standard – very reassuring!
Insulated Cabins
The cabins are supplied with chunky timber walls (good U-values) and double glazing as standard and you can ensure that they are comfortable year-round with the addition of our insulated floor and roof upgrade. We use 50mm PIR Celotex / Kingspan in the roof and cover this with a structural grade 18mm OSB roof deck atop before fitting your specified roofing material. We will use 25mm PIR Celotex / Kingspan in the floor. The fitment of insulation will not affect the internal headroom in any way and prices shown will include for fitting when our teams install your cabin.
Cabin Installation Service Available for These Buildings
These buildings with their modular design make them very easy as well as straight forward to build although this can be hard work. Having said that it can be very rewarding. These cabins were initially pre-assembled in the factory to ensure the minimum of problems out ‘in the field’. They are then flat packed before being delivered to the customer. However, not everyone wants to assemble their own cabin so we can arrange a cabin installation service for you. This is not excessively expensive for the amount of work involved and does provide peace of mind and also provide an absence of aching bones. Worth considering as an option. We can also arrange other essential services for you as well.
Before Purchasing Always Try to View at a Cabin Display Site
With many luxury large garden cabins to buy and available on the ‘web’ it’s easy to be persuaded by the flashiest web site or possibly the glossiest brochure. However, you need to stop and think before buying. How can you be sure it’s what you think it is? The ONLY way is to view beforehand and this means taking the trouble to visit a display centre. We have such garden buildings display areas near Guildford and Woking in Surrey where you can examine samples of our garden cabins. You might not be able to see the ‘Hungerford’ cabin but will be able to see examples of the Trentan cabin family. This will be able to show you the attention to detail and the general quality of this range of cabins.
Special Buildings to Meet Your Needs and Your Garden
These Trentan ‘Sandhurst’ buildings are available in the standard size and layout as well as other sizes. However, they can also be made in bespoke layouts as well as in different sizes ensuring they can meet your requirements. This customisation adds to the cost of the cabin and delivery time but it does ensure you get a building to suit your needs and requirement, well worth considering. You can also be sure that 1st Choice Leisure Buildings, a family business which started in 1979 understands the need to make cabins to a standard and not DOWN to a price. Our Ethos is to ensure quality reigns over cheapness and to date has been the right policy.

- Why Is Viewing A Cabin In Person Essential Before Purchasing?
With the internet, it's often difficult to see what your new building will be like. This is why it's essential to view examples before delivery. This way, you can see how well it's been made, whether there is sufficient head height, whether the doors and windows are solidly made and how good the timber is
Whilst some internet-only companies may claim it's best to buy online, it is only sometimes possible to be sure what you are getting. If they are not prepared to let you see their buildings beforehand, then be wary. The cheapest price is only sometimes the best value.
