Apex Log Cabins

An apex log cabin uses the pitched-both-sides roof shape that handles British weather best, rain runs off, water doesn't pool, and the centre headroom suits taller users and proper internal storage. The format is the household garden-building default for buyers planning year-round use. Cherry Lane Garden Centres, QD stores and Robert Dyas between them stock 1,800+ apex log cabins covering £919-£11,499. Wall thickness is the spec to focus on: 28mm walls suit three-season use (March-October); 44mm and 70mm walls turn the cabin into year-round accommodation suitable for a home office or garden gym. Floor specification matters too, 19mm tongue-and-groove softwood is the household standard; 28mm floors handle heavy office equipment without flexing. Most apex log cabins ship as flat-pack kits requiring concrete pad foundations and a 2-3 day assembly with two people. EPDM roofing at £200-£400 premium over felt lasts 25-30 years vs 5-7.
