Mountain Lodge Homes
Description
Mountain Lodge Homes is the UK distributor of high quality, strong and durable log home kits from Finland. designed to withstand the rigors of the British climate and to last for generations. All mountain lodge log cabins are made of logs from sustainable forests in Finland, from inside the Arctic Circle. Sourcing wood this far north means the logs are much stronger and of much higher quality than timber grown in the UK. The cold, dry climate of Finland forces the trees to grow slowly making the timber from which the logs are cut, very dense and hard wearing - perfect for a log home that will last many generations.
Our log cabin kits comply with and surpass UK building control regulations as they have been designed for the harsh climate of Finland. Our log house kits are extremely efficient in terms of heat retention (warm in winter, cool in summer) and are therefore suitable for year round dwelling/work.
As our solid log buildings meet the criteria for sustainable development, we believe that they represent a credible, greener alternative to common construction methods. Carbon dioxide which is absorbed during the life of a tree is locked up in wood products. The log house kits can be built on pillar foundations and therefore the use of concrete and cement is minimal compared to a bricks and mortar house. Apart from environmental issues, this also saves in construction costs, especially on a sloping site.
