Key Features & Benefits
Safety Glass Windows
Toughened safety glass or polycarbonate glazing — shatterproof and safe for little ones. Generous windows flood the playhouse with natural light.
Child-Height Doors
Scaled-down doors and low thresholds make it easy for children to enter independently. Adult-height options available for family playrooms.
Rounded Edges & Smooth Finish
All timber edges are sanded smooth and corners rounded to eliminate splinters and sharp points. Safe for toddlers through to teens.
Pressure Treated Timber
Tanalised framework and cladding resists rot and decay for years, even with constant exposure to Edinburgh's rain and damp.
Optional Extras
Add a veranda, window boxes, internal shelving, chalkboard panels, or even a loft level. Make it as simple or adventurous as your children want.
Custom Designs
From classic cottage playhouses to two-storey adventure dens — we build to your family's imagination and your garden's dimensions.
Built for Year-Round Outdoor Play
Edinburgh children need outdoor play space that works in all seasons. Our playhouses are built with the same heavy-duty construction as our adult sheds — pressure treated timber, waterproof roofing, and proper drainage.
The solid construction means children can play inside even during rain showers. Add a veranda and they have covered outdoor space for muddy boots and rainy-day adventures.
All timber is treated to resist rot, fungal decay, and insect damage, ensuring the playhouse stays safe and structurally sound for years of active use.
Problems Our Playhouses Solve
Children Bored Indoors
Edinburgh weather keeps kids inside too often. A playhouse gives them their own outdoor space to play in, rain or shine — encouraging imaginative play and time away from screens.
Unsafe Plastic Playhouses
Cheap plastic playhouses blow over in wind, fade in UV, and crack in frost. A timber playhouse is solid, stable, and built to last through Scottish weather.
No Garden Play Area
Not every Edinburgh garden has room for a full climbing frame. A compact playhouse fits into small spaces while giving children a dedicated play zone.
Installation Process
We start with a free site survey to measure your garden, discuss designs, and ensure the playhouse is positioned safely away from fences, boundaries, and hazards.
Installation is typically completed in a single day. We construct the playhouse, fit safety glass windows, doors, and any optional extras like verandas or shelving.
A level base is essential for safety. We recommend paving slabs, compacted gravel, or rubber safety matting on a prepared base for the best combination of stability and soft landing.
