A wooden cabin is used mainly during the warmer parts of the year, but it’s a shame to close it down when the weather turns cold. The answer is an insulated log cabin as this will help to keep the cabin warmer all year round. There will be a bit of investment to do this, but the rewards are great with this added insulation. We can supply our 8×8 cabin insulation pack for you.

Ensure you do your research to ensure your new 8×8 log building will be right for you. Take a look at our
‘Buying A Log Cabin?’ article for more guidelines.
Our large range of cabins covers most sizes and models. All are quality buildings so don't settle for second best. You know it makes sense. These timber cabins are made from high quality timber and include double glazed windows as standard. Ensure the cabin is right for you.
An application to the council to build a number of 8×8 log cabins in a north-east England would have been turned down.
Durham County Council rejected the preliminary application for six new flat pack cabins in the wood after two petitions and a number of objections against the proposal were received.
Local resident, Malcolm Sutcliffe, described the planned buildings as ‘Swiss Chalets’ (which I think look rather good!) it was reported in the Wear Valley Mercury.
The idea behind the scheme was to bring tourists to the area and to help the local economy. One of the issues was the fact that a number of pine trees would have needed to be removed to enable the cabins to be built. However, I am sure that the they could have been screened to ensure they blended into the surroundings.
The committee chairman, Mike Dixon, said it was always a fine balancing act between the need for tourism revenue, which would help the local businesses and what would be best for the area.
He went on to say that the woodland is an attraction for tourists and if they disturbed that then they would lose these visitors. He never said how much income the visitors to the woodlands brought in and what the projected benefits could have been if these 8ft x 8ft wooden cabins had been allowed to go ahead.
Durham Council’s arborculturalist had suggested that the trees were of low quality and it was only the sheer number of them made them an important landscape feature. Why people would want to visit a wood with low quality trees, as important as they are to the air we breathe, seems to be a very strange argument in rejecting the plans.
Recently a similar plan for wooden log cabin construction was passed in South Derbyshire despite local objections, again the size was 8×8 as well.. Whether the arguments were the same, I don’t know, but obviously the council in Derbyshire took a different view. The moral is to always check if you are in any doubt.
