- Timber Base Work — A 140mm x 95mm pressure treated base frame is supplied which is supported by 100mm x 100mm recycled plastic posts spaced approximately 1m apart. At each post location holes can be dug and posts are concreted into the ground. The height of the frame is determined by the highest point of the ground. This method allows airflow under the cabin and ensures a solid, level, and stable foundation.
This can be used as a permanent base, but it won't have a permanent impact on the surrounding environment that a concrete base will. - Bitumen Roofing Shingles - Overlapping heavy-duty felt material with an adhesive backing, that is nailed to the roof and finished with heavy-duty felt along the peak and eaves - 10-year guarantee.

Description:
The Ascot XL log Cabin is the Ascot's big brother, it still offers a multi-room lodge but the T24 XL log cabin has more depth to it (in every sense of the word). The Ascot XL is 6.5m x 7.0m, which allows it to have two additional rooms at the back. So you have two extra bedrooms or additional offices/store rooms for an expanding business. In the current market in business, often steps have to be taken in order to streamline expenses and often purchasing new premises like the T24 XL log Cabin (for surprisingly little) is a good place to start. The general quality and fittings are the same standard as most of our chalets with double glazing, tilt & turn, windows throughout.
This log cabin is a very nice looking log cabin owing to its unusual Swiss cottage shape, which is unaffected by its larger depth. It is a very compact chalet with a living area with a bed alcove, kitchen, small room perfect sized for a toilet/shower room, and at the rear of the log cabin, there are two additional rooms. The Ascot Chalet log cabin has 4 doors, 1 external door and 3 internal doors. It has 6 windows, all of which are tilt 'n' turn. The extra thickness of the wall and the double glazed windows make this a warm log cabin which can be used both summer and winter. The size of the cabin makes it suitable for a variety of uses including - a fantastic garden office complex, games rooms, smoking den, a Spa / Hot Tub House, Guest Suite or Holiday Home.
Like all our cabins, these can be fully customised to whatever ideas you have so when investing a substantial amount of money, it is important that you get it right first time. All cabins come with a treated base frame so this protects the bottom of the cabin but the rest of the timber MUST be treated as soon as possible. As wood is natural material; it expands, moves and contracts all the time so it is important that the timber is treated properly as soon as possible. It is worth treating inside cabins as well before you fit it out.
Specifications
What's included in the package is everything you need to get going:
- A treated base frame on which the whole cabin is built
- All wall logs, each cut to size, length and with the interlocking notches already cut out
- Floor & roof boards cut to length
- Skirting board
- Internal and External Trim
- Wind Boards for the gable ends
- Detailed instructions
- Screws of all lengths and sizes for each section of the job (this is a generic screw pack/you are likely to have some left over)
- Nails for putting down floor - (some like to use a brad gun instead of our nails to make 'secret nailing' in the tongue & groove boards easier)
- Roof covering - you can opt to order with or without the roof covering - This is selected at time of order
- If you have any trouble, we are available on the end of the phone to help out with build or with any queries.
- There is also most likely to be an extra wall board with notches cut out. This is there if there are any damages or missing parts. This extra log can be used to replace the broke or missing part in the unlikely circumstance. If you don't use it, it's a free piece of wood which could be used to make a shelf or a little step for the cabin.
The only thing you will need is your own tools and a flat, stable, level base. Information and advice on base work can be found here. It is also advisable to have at least 2 able bodies to build the cabin.
