Now our Premium Severn is up and painted we are very happy with the quality of the product. As we live in Scotland the build service is not available to us and I think that is a crucial option selection to take. These are not for the amateur DIY guy to erect. Mine was 5x4 metres plus the veranda plus a sidestore and it took two joiners a good couple of days to erect it. Experience personnel from Dunster I would recommend if that option is available. We had some broken pieces once unpacked and Dunster House replaced them but it took a while and delayed the build. I would have rather they discounted the broken pieces so we could get local replacements made, however, luckily my joiners could reschedule and we got it finished once the replacement parts arrived. It now looks excellent and gets compliments from neighbours and family.

We spent a long time searching the Internet and visiting garden centres before deciding to buy from Dunster house From the first phone call to the delivery the service was first class we visited the showroom in Flixborough and looked at the cabins and all the questions we had were answered and we were very impressed with knowledge of the sales staff The two chaps who delivered it were friendly and professional and nothing was to much trouble I am a retired fireman my son is a fisherman we have only basic DIY kills but we followed the instructions and watched the YouTube video and in 2 days we had built our cabin We were impressed by the quality of the materials and how easily everything fitted together perfectly We still have a few finishing touches to do but overall we are delighted with our cabin We are so pleased we choose Dunster house and would recommend them to anyone wanting to buy a cabin we are 100% impressed

Excellent product, my grandchildren just love the climbing frame. The timeframe to put it together is very optimistic. It takes realistically two people around 3-4 hrs.

The log cabin is a quality product, much more substantial than a standard garden shed. To erect it your self you need some confidence and woodwork experience. My main complaint is with the instructions. They are not presented in a way that is easy to navigate by a novice. I will be much better and quicker erecting my second cabin having learnt from making mistakes with the first one! I may be making excuses but better presented instructions that were specific to the version of the model I had bought and contained more pictures and step by step instructions, highlighting likely errors and crucial aspects to get right would have made the process much easier. If sections of the instructions were tagged to a version of the cabin that they applied to in a documents system, a bespoke set could be produced for each purchase in one package.

A well-designed and relatively easily assembled building that looks absolutely great at the bottom of the garden. The only gripes were some split pieces of timber that needed gluing and clamping to make them useable, and a temporary roof prop that was not the correct length, requiring the roof to be taken down and re-assembled. Other than that - excellent!

Our climbing frame is up and the kids are going crazy on it. Well done for a solid, quality item. I'm currently trying to persuade two friends to buy.

Purchasing a Dunster House log cabin 5 years ago was the best money I have ever spent. I initially used it as my business for private practice counselling, saving me a fortune in office rental. For the last year, however, it has become my writing space where my first novel is almost complete. When I retired I redecorated the inside to be 'girly'pink as I wanted a totally feminine space. It developed into a theme of birds and birdhouses, quite apt for a garden she-shed. I painted an old chair pink and covered its seat with suitable material, hung pink voile curtains and replaced the brown cushions with fluffy hearts and shabby chic ones you see in garden centres but don't buy for the home. I recommend Dunster House to those who enquire about my special place, the service is excellent and the price reflects the quality and serviceability. Its uses are endless depending on ones hobbies.

After a bit of research I went for Dunster House as they seamed the best out there for the price. It all arrived on the day as specified and after a few days waiting on the weather to get better I started to erect the Summer House. Not having done this sort of thing before I was a bit worried but it all slotted together easily. Although it took me longer than expected, 2 days, this was due to watching your tube videos on how to assemble the house, ensuring I got it right. The Summer House is terrific and have spent a lot of time in it already. I am 100% happy with my purchase and would recommend Dunster house to anyone wishing to buy a quality product.

I bought this for my grandchildren aged 6 to 10. The first to use it were the 6 and 7 year old who both found it very good fun and stretched them. The product comes in full kit form and requires very careful reading of the full set of instructions but one adult and 7 year old granddaughter put it together fine. Delivery was quicker than expected and I was kept informed all the way. The final build is very firm and stable and well anchored into the ground.

The squirrelfort comes with clear instructions making assembly straight forward and easy. The timber and all fittings are good quality and the delivery team were great. But best if all the kids love it and keeps them busy in the garden for hours, even if it's raining our little lad still wants to be pushed on the swings!
