Copyright (c) 2010 Filton KingswoodWhen someone mentions 'log cabin' a luxurious holiday residence set in an Alpine valley with snow topped mountains and a cow wearing a bell may spring to mind. However you can now buy log cabins to be used in your very own garden. Primarily these are used as more attractive garden sheds or as summerhouses. The aim of this article is to guide you through the buying process to ensure you get a log cabin suitable for your needs.First you need to consider what you will be using your garden log cabin for. Will it be used as an alternative to a shed, housing garden furniture, hose pipes and lawn mowers? Or will it be used as a home office? Or possibly to enjoy a hobby by turning it into a workshop for carpentry, sewing or tinkering on that beloved car or motorbike? Or will it simply be used to enable you to enjoy your garden as a convenient summer house? Garden Rooms are so versatile that they can be used for any of these things. In fact if you had a big enough log cabin, you could in fact turn it into living quarters for when guests visit or as a pool house. Remember to consider your future needs as well as your present needs or you may end up having to replace your purchase with a larger one in a couple of years time.So have you decided what you will be using the log cabin for? Good. Now lets move on to size.With so many uses, it's hardly surprising that garden log cabins some in a wide variety of sizes. A 3 x 3m log cabin makes an ideal garden shed, where as a 5 x 4m Cabin makes a great workshop or summer house. When considering what size of garden log cabin to buy, you also need to consider how much room you have for it. Will it fit neatly into the garden or will it overpower the space you have available. Measure your garden carefully and consider any restraints before you buy a cabin.As well as size, there is a lot of choice available on the style of Wooden Garden Rooms that are on the market in the UK today. Most are built from attractive interlocking timber logs for durability, however some of the smaller cabins can be made from timber grained plastic so check yours out before you commit to buying it. Ideally you should look for a FSC-approved log cabin which means it's made from environmentally friendly timber. The timber should be treated to give all-weather protection from rot. There are number of different finishes to the timber used in garden log cabins, some come already painted or with a dipped finish. Others come in a natural finish for you to paint or stain in the colour of your choice - allowing you to blend the log cabin into your garden or make it into a feature.There are a broad range of decorative features available on Wooden cabins. This allows you to choose a log cabin kit in keeping with your house or garden style, as well as meeting your needs. Some come with a veranda or sun terrace which allows you to make use of the outside space - an ideal place to relax with a book or work while enjoying some fresh air. Some garden log cabins come with a roof overhang which offers you some shade and protection on really sunny days.Quality Garden rooms come with a variety of options. Doors windows, single glazed, double glazed, felt or shingles. The choice is yours and the variables are endless. You can paint your cabin to a colour of your choice, stain or use a clear varnish. A Garden Building can be personalized to you which I think is great.The great thing about garden log cabins is with a few tools, the will and a few mates you can make one yourself. Once the foundations are laid you can build a log cabin kit like a jigsaw puzzle. They are easy but do read the instructions carefully. If like me you just start and read when you get stuck you may struggle. Read carefully and you can create your garden paradise.So now you should be more aware of what to consider when buying a garden log cabin.
