This cottage style playhouse is set on a platform in which lots of activities are incorporated. The playhouse is set on a lower platform which is accessed via a staircase. There are 2 opening windows on the front of the playhouse, 1 either side of the central stable door. The roof is finished in wooden cedar shingles and has a chimney on it which really adds to the cottage like appearance. Internally there is a fitted bench and a trap door which leads down to ground level via a ladder. On the left hand end of the playhouse there is a basket ball ring fitted. To the right of the playhouse is a higher platform which has a number of access points. There is a staircase leading to it from the lower platform and an additional staircase at the opposite end. Alternatively there is a climbing wall and monkey bars which come off the platform. Also coming down from the centre of the platform is a fireman's pole. Underneath the platform there is a punch bag and 2 tyre swings fitted. Finally there is a telescope fitted to the balustrade rails on the front so children can keep an eye on who's coming.

Specification of this Playhouse with activities
Roof - Wood Shingles
The playhouse roof is built to withstand the English climate; 75mm x 50mm bearers are put across from side to side. Screwed to these bearers is 12mm external quality plywood covered with two layers of base waterproof membrane and then wooden cedar shingles, using galvanised staples. The felt is wrapped over the front and back and sealed behind the facia board; there is also a ridge board fitted along the top ridge, these boards can be either straight or shaped.
Sides - Option 3
This is our highest level of build, the playhouse will have a damp proof membrane in the walls, full insulation and flat plywood lined walls on the inside with architrave around the doors and windows and skirting board around the bottom of the walls.
Initially a framework is built using 50mm x 38mm timber. To this we fix on the outside a weatherproof membrane and good quality redwood ship lap using galvanised brads, insulation panels are fitted between the framework before 6mmwbp plywood in fitted as an internal skin, this makes the side panels. Architrave is fitted around the doors and windows and skirting around the bottom of the walls. These panels are then sanded and treated on the outside using two coats of Sadolin wood preservative. These are then fitted together on site, a clear silicon seal is applied to all the corners.
Floor - Raised on a Platform
Your playhouse comes with a solid floor, it is constructed using 25mm x 50mmm tanolised bearers supporting an 18mm wbp external grade plywood floor: this is treated on the upper side using sadolin classic timber protection. Sandwiched between the bearers and plywood is a damp proof membrane that then wraps around the edge and sits under the playhouse side. The membrane is there to stop moisture coming up. A soft floor is fitted to the ground floor of the playhouse once finished - this floor can be removed easily for cleaning. This is then sited on to a decking platform.
