8×5’6 Shire Loft 2 Storey Kids Wooden Playhouse
Overview
The 8×5’6 Shire Loft 2 Storey Kids Wooden Playhouse is a two-storey kids’ wooden playhouse that gives children a wonderful outdoor play space of their own. Two floors of play space are joined by a ladder or staircase to the upper level, creating a genuine adventure for children and making the most of a compact footprint by building upwards rather than out. It is a great option for a garden where floor space is tight but you still want to give children a proper den to call their own, with somewhere to climb, hide and play pretend games across two levels.

Construction
Built from quality timber with smooth-planed surfaces to ensure child safety. All edges are finished to prevent splinters. The structure is designed for outdoor use and can be treated annually to maintain its appearance and extend its life. The two-storey layout means the Loft delivers more play area per square metre of garden than a single-storey playhouse of a similar footprint, since the upper level adds a second usable floor within the same base.
Treatment & Guarantee
The timber is supplied ready for treating, and we recommend applying a quality exterior wood preservative within 6 weeks of assembly and annually thereafter to keep the finish protected and looking its best.
Doors & Windows / Security
All Shire playhouses are designed with child safety in mind. Smooth-planed timber minimises splinter risk. We recommend adult supervision during assembly and periodic inspection to ensure all fixings remain secure.
Assembly Information
This playhouse arrives flat-packed with comprehensive assembly instructions. We recommend at least two adults for assembly. All fixings and hardware are included. A firm, level base is recommended.
Delivery Information
Free delivery to most UK mainland addresses. Some remote postcodes may incur a surcharge.
Optional Upgrades
Professional installation can be arranged if you would rather leave assembly to a specialist team. A shed base kit is also worth considering to give the playhouse a firm, level standing surface.
