This lovely Cotswold lakeside cabin was designed by us and the build completed in 2016. The whole idea of the building was to create a space for living that is both informal and fun; an ideal family get away. The main living area is open plan to the kitchen and dining areas, a concept increasingly popular with our clients.
Clad in wide sawn Larch weatherboarding and roofed in cleft Spruce shakes, the effect is really attractive and blends well with the rural setting. The Green Oak Carpentry Company were later commissioned to add the balcony, accessed from the sleeping loft for alfresco sleeping on warm summer evenings.
The large glazed south facing gable gives wonderful views across the lake and floods the interior with light. The extent of the glazing is extreme and might not be to everyone’s taste, but the effect is stunning.
The perfect place for the family to gather after dinner and enjoy the views across the lake.
Sandblasted Oak beams, powder coated blue steel, glass and white painted sarking boarding over the Oak rafters give warmth and add a contemporary feel to the interior.
The steel spiral staircase gives access onto the bridge that spans between the upstairs bedroom and the ‘sleeping loft’ to the left of this picture. The glass balustrade does not impede the long views through the building.
View across the bridge to the ‘sleeping loft’. Note the double doors onto the balcony seen in photo no.2.
A lovely dusk shot taken of the cabin from across the lake. We had to wait until the light went for this shot to avoid the unsightly green algae resulting from the long hot summer (but we didn’t tell you that!)
“"Everyone is very impressed with the finished result and I thought I would just take the opportunity of belatedly giving my thanks to you and your team for a job very well done. I have submitted the bridge for a Civic Society award for next year and have every expectation of its success."
P White, Northholt & Greenford Countryside Park Manager
“"We have constructed several buildings using Oak frames designed, manufactured and erected by the Green Oak Carpentry Company. We are pleased to confirm that their work is accurate, well detailed and delivered on time. They are knowledgeable and we find working with them easy and straight forward. We therefore have no hesitation in recommending them."
Robert, Trembath Associates
“"Seems a long time since we finished with the garden room project but we have to say that it has been a huge success in every aspect. The room has become the place of choice for visitors. I can guarantee that everyone, yes everyone who visits, is blown away by the frame."
Mel, Moat Farm
“"Thanks for the excellent job which has just been completed on the Oak Frame extension to the above property. Not only is the quality of the work faultless, it is a true work of art, which will bring endless enjoyment to me and my wife. The end result has surpassed our wildest expectations."
Ray Nicolaides
“"I wanted to drop you a quick note to show my appreciation for your guys efforts today; they were a pleasure to have around the house and worked hard to get the frame up today."
