An indoor wooden playhouse is a piece of furniture before it is a toy. It has to clear your ceiling, sit against a wall without blocking a radiator or a window, and leave a route a child can walk around. That is why nothing here is a fixed kit: every set is drawn to an existing floor plan and built to order in our own workshop.
The first questions we ask are about the space, not the model. What is the ceiling height at the spot you have in mind? Is there a doorway the assembled pieces have to pass through, or will it be built in the room? Is the floor level? Does anything have to be reachable behind it — a socket, a vent, a cupboard door? Those answers change the drawing more than any style choice does.
Height is the first constraint. A single-storey playhouse sits comfortably under a standard ceiling; a loft or two-level design needs real headroom on both levels, and the balustrade and stair change with it. A playhouse with a slide needs a clear run-out at the bottom that the room has to give up permanently.
The second is who uses it. A house a toddler grows into is drawn differently from one a seven-year-old wants now: opening heights, step depth and the size of the interior all shift. Families who want the piece to last past the playhouse years usually ask for an interior that can later hold a desk or a reading seat.
The third is finish. Water-based finishes are chosen so surfaces can be wiped down without stripping them. Colour is chosen against the room it stands in, which is why we draw it in place before anything is cut.
People write it both ways. A play house and a playhouse are the same thing: a small building a child plays inside. The two-word spelling is more common when people mean an indoor structure for a bedroom or a playroom, and that is exactly what this collection is. Outdoor garden sheds for children are a different product with different weather and foundation requirements; everything here is drawn for a room with a floor and a ceiling.
The wood question comes up as often as the spelling. Our wooden play houses are built from kiln-dried pine from FSC-certified European mills, chosen because it is light enough to move, stable enough to keep a doorway square, and honest enough to sand and re-coat years later. Panels are solid timber rather than a printed shell, so a knock leaves a dent you can fix instead of a chip you cannot.
If you are comparing a wooden play house with a plastic one, the difference you will feel first is weight and silence: a solid structure does not rattle when a child climbs it, and it does not need to be replaced when the theme stops fitting the room. It is refinished instead.
A playhouse in a family home is used in bursts and is looked after by the people who own it. A playhouse in a play café, a preschool or a hotel kids club is in use for a whole working day, every day, by children nobody has met before. The craft is the same; the specification is not — joinery is heavier, fixings are made to be inspected and re-tightened, and sightlines are drawn so an adult at the counter can see in. Designed with reference to ASTM F1487 and CPSC Publication 325.
Most families arrive with a picture in their head rather than a model number. The themes asked for by name are the shop fronts: a bakery, a grocery, a post office, a flower shop and — the most requested of all — an ice cream cottage with a serving hatch and a painted awning. A theme is not a sticker on a box here; it changes the front elevation, the counter height and what goes inside.
A childrens playhouse built around a theme also ages better, because the theme can be re-painted without touching the structure. The cottage that served ice cream at five becomes a reading hut at eight, and the shell, the doorway and the shelves stay exactly where they were.
If you are looking for an indoor play house rather than a garden one, the theme matters even more: the piece stands in a room people live in every day, so the front is furniture as much as it is a toy. We draw the elevation against your wall colour before anything is cut.

Yes — it is the same thing written two ways. People searching for a play house and people searching for a playhouse are usually looking for the same piece: a small building a child plays inside. What actually changes the product is where it stands. Everything in this collection is drawn for an indoor room; outdoor garden structures need weather protection and a prepared base, which is a different build.
Kiln-dried pine from FSC-certified European mills. Kiln drying keeps the timber stable so a doorway stays square after the piece is assembled; pine is light enough to move a module without machinery and takes a water-based finish evenly. Because the panels are solid wood rather than a printed shell, the surface can be sanded and re-coated years later instead of replaced.
It depends on the design rather than on a single rule. A single-storey house is drawn to sit under the ceiling you have; a loft or two-level design needs standing room on the lower level and safe headroom on the upper one. We measure your ceiling at the intended spot first and draw to it — the ceiling sets the design, not the other way around.
Yes. Sets are built in sections that pass through normal doorways and are assembled in the room, so a house can be dismantled and reassembled if you move. Tell us before the drawing stage if you expect to move it, because it changes how the sections are split.
Every set is made to order, so the schedule runs from drawing approval rather than from the order date. Design and revisions come first, then the build, then shipping and installation. Current lead times are on the delivery and installation page, because they move with the workshop's queue and we would rather quote you a real date than a general one.
It is, but it should be specified as a commercial piece from the start rather than bought as a home piece and put into a business. Traffic, cleaning, sightlines and the route around exits all change the drawing. Each buyer type — play café, preschool, clinic, hotel — has its own page setting out what changes.
