Ways to Make the Most of Your Belham Log Cabin

The Belham is the ultimate purchase for anyone needing a new, practical space to make use of in their homes that will still look stunning in any garden.

Many use the Belham as a tranquil home office. Away from the distractions of the home and in a calming, garden setting, many find this atmosphere is ideal for concentration and getting work done. The secure door and shutter make it an ideal place for storing valuables or for setting up a home workshop away from prying eyes. Alternatively, it could provide just the space you are after for pursuing your spare time activities in comfort, quiet and privacy. Whether you are after a place to set up as a games room or would like somewhere that you could use exercise equipment in private, the Belham could provide exactly what you have been looking for. With so many options and plenty of alternative sizes also available, we are sure you will love making the most of your Belham Log Cabin, even if it is just as a place to relax away from it all.

Why Others Tell Us They Love the Belham

Customers tell us that they choose the Belham for its traditional, log cabin appearance as well as its design which ensures security and privacy. The attractive apex roof gives it a classic, cabin look and the crossed, Georgian-style window adds to the elegant, traditional aesthetic. The wooden shutter also contributes to this feel as well as providing extra security and privacy. Inside, generous headroom makes the cabin feel spacious, with thick roof beams and skirting boards rounding off the stunning interior space. The opening window also gives great flexibility, meaning you can close yourself inside snugly on a cold day or throw it open to allow a cool breeze when the weather is warmer. The sturdy, wooden door rounds off the design, with many customers loving its striking, planed timber appearance. Our customers often like to add their own personal touch by painting their log cabins and they look fantastic in any colour. Shire recommends that you use Protek paint, available from elbec in a wide variety of colours. By using Protek Royal Exterior, you can make the Belham look exactly how you want it while adding extra protection to the timber. Whether you love bold, bright colours or a more natural wood finish, Protek have a colour to suit any taste.

Features

A Shire Log Cabin is built to last, and the Belham is no exception. Shire uses 4-way corner joints and interlocking logs of the highest quality as standard. This ensures that you’ll be impressed by the strength, stability and sturdy feel of the Belham Log Cabin. With the Shire draught seal system that is fitted on all external windows and doors, you can be sure you will be snug in your log cabin. The Shire Belham Log Cabin is made from logs that are 28mm in thickness, which provides excellent insulation for the inside. However, our customers often like to use our bespoke service to upgrade to a thicker wall log, (available in 34mm, 44mm and 70mm) if they would like a cabin with extra insulation for an all-year-round cosier feel. Quality Celotex roof and floor insulation can also be included as part of this service to help ensure a snug interior whatever the weather. The door can be locked securely using the mortise lock and key provided, giving you peace of mind when leaving items inside. The Belham, like all Shire Log Cabins, can be dismantled and rebuilt should you ever decide to move, a useful feature when investing in a log cabin. We’re pleased to offer the option of booking our dedicated professionals who will assemble your log cabin quickly and correctly. However, you can choose to use the comprehensive instructions included with the log cabin and construct it yourself.

Customisation Options

You can make a selection of customisations to the Belham Log Cabin without needing our bespoke service. Why not upgrade the window to either toughened glass or double glazing for extra security and insulation?

About the Timber

You will be impressed by Shire's use of natural products and their environmental credentials. A high quality timber log cabin starts with high quality timber, so it is important to know exactly what timber is being used for your log cabin. The most commonly used timber for garden buildings is pine (pinus) as this is widely available for a very cheap price, however all of Shire's garden buildings are constructed using high quality spruce (picea) and is sourced from sustainably sourced timber. Spruce is more durable than pine and provides a higher quality finish. This timber is slow grown unlike fast grown British and Eastern Europe's timber, being slow grown timber means a tighter grain, less sap and with far fewer knots. The timber used on Shire's log cabins is therefore a more durable timber that will last much longer than other timbers used on log cabins. Spruce is therefore the timber of choice for companies such as Shire who always look to produce the best garden building.

Base

It is important that the base for your log cabin is firm and level. You can request 'Guidelines for Preparing a Concrete Base' through our 'Contact Us' Section.
