Full details
The TP Forest Cabin is a charming, wooden outdoor playhouse designed for families who want to encourage imaginative and social play in their own garden. Featuring a spacious floored verandah and a bright, light-filled interior, this structure serves as a perfect hub for creative adventures.

FAQs
Does the TP Forest Cabin come pre-painted?
No, the playhouse is supplied in its natural wood state. It must be treated with a wood preservative before being placed outdoors.
Is the floor included?
Yes, the playhouse includes a solid floor, including the verandah area.
What is the age recommendation for this playhouse?
This product is designed for residential use by children in accordance with standard safety certifications; please check the product box for specific age-range stickers.
Can I leave the playhouse outside all year?
Yes, provided it has been properly treated with an exterior wood preservative and is maintained annually.
What tools are needed for assembly?
Basic household tools, such as a cordless drill and a screwdriver, are typically sufficient for the assembly of the prefabricated panels.
Troubleshooting
Door is sticking or not closing properly
Ensure the ground surface beneath the cabin is perfectly level. If the base is uneven, the frame will twist, causing doors to misalign.
Visible signs of mold or dark spots on the wood
The wood was not sufficiently treated. Sand down the affected area, treat it with a fungal-killing wood preservative, and re-apply a protective exterior stain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly of the TP Forest Cabin is simplified by its prefabricated panels; however, it is highly recommended to have two adults assist during the build to align the walls correctly.
Care Instructions:
- Pre-treatment: Before assembly, all wood surfaces must be coated with a high-quality exterior wood preservative to protect against rot and fungal decay.
- Periodic Maintenance: Inspect the structure twice a year for loose screws or signs of wood wear.
- Cleaning: Wipe down the Perspex window with a soft cloth and mild soapy water; avoid abrasive cleaners that might scratch the surface.
- Placement: Keep the cabin clear of overhanging branches to prevent leaf buildup and excessive moisture on the roof.
