Western Red Cedar
Western Red Cedar...characteristics of the timber we use for our long lasting summerhouses.
It's strong - Western Red Cedar has excellent dimensional stability and endurance. It lays flat, stays straight and is less likely to twist and crack than other wood products such as treated timber.
It's long lasting - The supremacy of Western Red Cedar as an all-weather building material is entirely natural. Along with it's beauty, stability and endurance, Western Red Cedar contains natural oils that act as preservatives to help the wood resist insect attack and decay.
It's non-toxic - Western Red Cedar is non-toxic and safe for all uses, and requires no chemical treatment.
It smells good - Western Red Cedar is probably well known for its distinctive aroma. Over time the wood remains subtly aromatic and the characteristic fragrance adds another dimension to its universal appeal.
It's beautiful - Western Red Cedar's rich grain and vibrant colour make
it the preferred material for all applications where beauty is
important.

Planning On Adding A Summerhouse To Your Garden
Are you considering adding a summerhouse to your garden, well January is the perfect time to do so. Most people don't consider any garden alterations until the weather improves in spring time but January/ February are really a better time to plan any additions to your garden. Not only does it give you something to look forward to and think about in the bleak winter months but as our summerhouses are all handcrafted, they have a leadtime of 6-8 weeks. So why not take advantage of winter offers and receive delivery of your summerhouse at the beginning of spring giving you more time to enjoy living indoors...outdoors.
Each of our designs can be adapted for a variety of purposes including a tranquil home office, inspirational studio, gym or merely a tranquil retreat. A Chelsea Summerhouse is really a perfect way to enjoy the outdoors and make the most of your garden.

The Perfect Garden Summerhouse
Our lovely Chelsea Summerhouse has been the perfect place to
get out of the cold winds at the tail end of a autumn that just seems to
have gone on and on... It is painted a soft, pebble grey, like the colour of
collared dove's feathers, a colour that fits harmoniously with the plants
around it.
The roof is made of cedar shingles, tightly fitting together, which age to a lichen grey. They give a lovely scent, woody and evocative, and the evening light comes slanting in from the west through the pretty windowpanes. I love the way the roof line flicks up gently at the eaves, a subtle piece of design. Hand made from Western Red Cedar which is known for its durability and resistance to warping and shrinking - very necessary to cope with the sort of winter upon us! All in all, it is a thing of beauty as well as being a restful place to sit out of the wind.
