Designed Around You

We have so many options available. As well as our Scandinavian-inspired Forest School Cabins, you can also opt for our bespoke school rooms, available in a choice of 3 different cladding choices. One of the most popular choices is our zero-maintenance Marley Board, which is a composite cladding that doesn't require any ongoing treatment or maintenance, so your cabin will stay in as good a condition as the day it was installed. We also offer Redwood, a timeless, rustic cladding bursting with natural charm and beauty, and our showstopping Cedar, a contemporary, virtually knotless timber which offer an unrivalled feel of luxury and quality.

Why Is A Bespoke Building A Good Investment For Schools?

Outdoor buildings are freestanding structures that can be used for a variety of purposes, including classrooms, libraries, and science labs. Investing in a purpose-built outdoor classroom is a smart choice for schools looking to enhance the educational experience for their students. They provide flexibility, cost-effectiveness, environmental benefits, and increased learning opportunities. By investing in an outdoor building, schools can create a learning environment that is engaging, immersive, and highly effective!

Schools usually have a purpose in mind when they contact us, whether that be to create a beautiful extra classroom or a specialist building to enable them to broaden the learning experiences of the children which attend their school. Mark who heads our design team was a teacher for many years and understands the needs which schools have, as well as the parameters schools are often confined to.

Taking learning outdoors is proven to relax a children’s minds and help them to absorb more information and also retain it. Creating fun and interesting outdoor activities can prove hard for some schools when outdoor areas are limited and also highly affected by the weather. Here at Cabin Master we work closely with all our schools to provide them with the ideal extra space they need.
