Welcome to Scandinavian log cabins Direct...

jorntra log cabins

For years Swedish products have been a byword for style and quality. The same is true of their houses. For centuries the Swedes have been building warm comfortable houses in wood. For them building high quality homes is essential if they are to survive the long bitterly cold winters. The style is just in their nature, they just cannot help making terrific looking houses.

At Scandinavian Log Cabins Direct we are proud to be the UK distributor for Jorntrahus of Sweden. Jorntrahus are a family business who have been building log homes and log cabins in the far North of Sweden close to the Arctic circle for 70 years. We have been selling their products since 2004 and have grown to be one of the principle log cabin suppliers in the UK.

Quality is at the heart of the Jorntrahus ethos from the quality of the materials, to the design of the cabin. Yet Jorntrahus log cabins from Scandinavian Log Cabins Direct are surprisingly affordable. We keep our overheads low and pass on the savings direct to you.

Whether you are looking for a home office for your garden, extra accommodation for family members, a family home, holiday cottages, a mobile home, or a commercial building you will find something to interest you on our site.

Our log cabins are freshly made to order using our advanced computer aided design system. Thanks to this we can quickly turn your ideas into plans to build your dream log cabin.
Some examples of the uses our cabins are put to are :-

  • Mr D of Wokingham bought a Tallbo 20 log cabin for use as a home office. With just floor and roof insulation it is warm enough to work in all year round saving having to rent an office at the local business centre.
  • Mr C of Stevenage bought a Tallbo 28 garden cabin for his grandparents to live in after they needed additional care not available from their local authority without having to sell their house.
  • Mr H of Derbyshire bought a Tallviken log bungalow as a home for his growing family because a log home was cheaper than a conventional house, and far nicer to live in.
  • Dr E of North London bought a Tallbo 20W to house his brand new Hot-tub. Incorporating a sauna/changing room he can now be found most nights relaxing in the hot tub after a hard day wielding the scalpel.

Log cabins arrive in kits from Sweden which you can erect yourself if you are reasonably good at DIY, or we can arrange for it to be erected for you. For homes or commercial buildings we can offer full project management services.

How to live on agricultural land without planning permission

How to legally live on agricultural land
Here at Scandinavian Log Cabins we are very often contacted by smallholders who have been denied permission by their local authority to live on their smallholding. Very often the reason given is because they cannot prove that they need to live on the land in order to run their business. Smallholders sometimes think the planning officers want a countryside empty of people.

However if one is familiar with all the regulations it is perfectly possible to legally live on a smallholding without requiring planning permission.

There is a very good book on the subject by planning consultant David Acreman called "Field to Farm. In his book David guides you through the labyrinth of regulations that are so daunting to aspiring smallholders. Field to Farm is invaluable for anyone who wants to start an agricultural business.

David Acreman will be a guest on the Scandinavian Log Cabin Direct stand at the Homebuilding and Renovating show at the NEC in Birmingham March 18th to 20th. This is an ideal opportunity to talk to David about your planning issues and at the same time discuss with us a cabin to put on your small holding for your new agricultural business.
