Product Overview

Perfectly sized for smaller gardens, patios, or play corners, the 4x4 Playhut is a charming starter playhouse designed to inspire imaginative fun while fitting beautifully into any outdoor space. With quality joinery, child-safe glazing, and a working window and door, it’s a wonderful way to introduce outdoor roleplay – no large footprint required.

Certified to EN71 toy safety standards and built using durable shiplap cladding, this wooden playhouse brings garden charm and peace of mind together in one beautifully compact build.

The 4x4 Playhut offers all the charm of a traditional wooden playhouse, perfectly scaled down to suit smaller gardens, courtyards, and patios. Thoughtfully designed with a joinery-made opening window and timber door, it creates a welcoming little den for storytelling, make-believe games, or quiet time in the garden.

Made from high-quality shiplap cladding and delivered with easy-to-follow instructions, it’s both beautiful and practical – a first playhouse that’s built to last and ready to play.
