Modern Log Cabins

What are the typical features of contemporary log cabins?

With all the warmth of wood, contemporary log cabins have high-level highlights such as clean lines, simplicity of design, and especially an abundance of natural light.

Walk through our carefully assembled collection of modern log cabins and one feature you will notice is that a large proportion has pent-style roofing. Pent (one sloping side only) is a classic feature of modern-style log cabins.

As we previously mentioned, an abundance of natural light is important too. Look for large full-length (floor to ceiling) windows which are fully glazed as well as bay windows. Bi-fold doors are an especially popular option too, these fully open and fold back and allow lots of light into the cabin. Most of our contemporary log cabins feature double doors.

A roofing material with a modern aesthetic appeal is EPDM (Ethylene-Propylene Diene Monomer), this is a modern alternative to traditional bitumen felt.

Are corner modern log cabins available?

Yes! We sell log cabins in sizes from 8’x6’ up to 23’x10’, with 8’x6’ and 10’x8’ being the most popular. Among these, we have corner models available in the following sizes – 8’x8’, 9’x9’, 10’x10’ and 18’x18’. These square-shaped log cabins neatly fill a corner of the garden with an extremely useful garden building. To view our entire range of corner log cabins, click this link.
