Luxury Log Cabins in Oxfordshire
Log cabins are a perfect add-on if you’re looking to extend your property. It offers you a space that is separate to your house and allows you to enjoy the outdoors. They are ideal builds for home offices, workshop or luxurious guest accommodation.
The timber that is used for your log cabin will have an impact on the longevity, structural integrity and overall aesthetics once the build is complete. The most common woods used for log cabin construction are pine, spruce, cedar and douglas fir. This is due to their aesthetics, cost and decay-resistant properties. If you are unsure of which wood type is most suited to your requirements then it is important that you discuss this with a member of our team prior to making your purchase.

If you wish to have your log cabin constructed quickly, it’s important that you choose a style and follow certain rules that mean you won’t require planning permission.
To build a log cabin without planning permission, anywhere except in front of your house, it must be single storey. If your building is being constructed 2m or less from the property boundary, it cannot exceed 2.5m in height.
When building on designated land (national parks, areas of outstanding natural beauty, conservation areas and world heritage sites) you are not permitted to build your outbuilding to the side or front of your property – it MUST be around the back.
Outbuildings (including sheds and any other buildings built after the original house) must not exceed 50% of the total area of land around the original property.
If you are planning to use your log cabin as a rented holiday home or separate property, you will require planning permission.
