Description

The Wigwam is full of character, helping to capture the imagination of your child. The striking design of the wigwam provides a unique alternative to the traditional playhouse to accommodate all kinds of fun and games. The wigwam is perfect for Wild West games, but could also be used to recreate a funky festival or simply be the focus of your child’s usual play.

Shire playhouses are manufactured in the UK and built to the highest standard. The tongue and groove walls, styrene windows and softwood construction ensure that the Wigwam can endure hours of adventurous play.

The importance of safety has not been overlooked. The shatter-proof styrene glazed windows which provide natural light prevent broken glass disrupting play time whilst the piano-hinged door ensures no trapped fingers interfere with the amount of fun to be had with the Wigwam.

If you are looking for an unusual playhouse which is attractive from all angles and perfect for compact gardens, the Shire Wigwam is the ideal choice.

The images show the playhouse decorated. An optional basecoat finish is available to protect against rot and Shire recommends that you protect your playhouse with Protek Royal Exterior Wood Finish, which is available in a range of natural stains and colours.

Upon Delivery
Delivery is made by Shire the manufacturer. Delivery of this item is typically made by a 17 ton flat-bed (similar size to a council refuse lorry). Delivery is typically between 7am and 7pm. The delivery drivers are only insured to deliver to kerb side or driveway. We would not risk damaging your property whilst delivering a product. Unfortunately we will not be able to go through your property. Deliveries are hand-balled off by the driver.

We would recommend against arranging for a third party to install the building before it's been delivered and checked that all parts are present, as we cannot be held liable for any third-party costs.

Please be aware that the installation team will require full access to your garden, 18' clearance all around the building and a firm and level base. Shire's installation team will not bring a building through your home as they are not covered by insurance to enter a customer’s home.
