What makes a summer house traditional in style?

Traditional summer houses (also sometimes called classic, rustic, or vintage) emphasise bygone times and shamelessly indulge in the past! Look for features such as Antique style fittings and hinges and Georgian-style double doors.

Although apex roofs are available in our contemporary summer houses, they are more associated with traditional and classic designs. We have a number of traditional summer houses available with apex roofs. Classic boxed windows and front verandas with picket fences are also typical of the traditional style.

Add traditional-style lamps and gas lanterns internally to finish your traditional look.
