Malvern Playhouse Playhouse
The Malvern playhouse is the ideal setting for your child's next big adventure! The Playhouse features a chimney, stable door, side door and integral loft and ladder (positioned against the rear wall) as standard. Also included are painted fascias and window frames in red or green.
There are many great safety features as well - to keep your mind at rest whilst your children are playing. The ledged stable door has magnetic catches and piano style hinges, angled to leave a gap when shut. There is also a gap between the stable door - all to protect fingers from getting trapped. The windows are also glazed with safety acrylic for your piece of mind. All of our Malvern playhouses have SAFETY CERTIFICATION.

Playhouse 8ft x 6ft
Our top selling Playhouse has been a firm favourite for over 20 years. This year we've reintroduced two colour choices at no additional cost. In addition to the plain timber bargeboards and windows we're offering green and red highlights too. This Playhouse has the green highlights, red roofing felt ( a no-cost option ), and floor bearers under the floor to keep the floor joists off the ground.
Playhouse 6ft x 6ft
The 6ft x 6ft Playhouse has three windows rather than the four fitted to the larger model. It also has a side door on the low side. Green highlights as shown are a newly introduced option at no additional cost.
Playhouse 8ft x 6ft
This has been our brochure picture of the Playhouse for a long time ! No doubt the children grew out of their toys some years ago!
This is included here to demonstrate how the Playhouse looks with plain timber highlights.
Deal cladding
The Playhouse is constructed with Deal ( Pine ) tongued and grooved cladding. The surface of this is planed smooth and each board fits neatly into the next.
Before the building leaves the factory each panel is given a wash of a quality wood preservative which protects it against rot and insect attack. The process allows the preservative to get between the boards and into the end grain of the timber ensuring that all surfaces are coated.
Finger Guard
Each of the Malvern Playhouses features a stable door which kids just love to play with. However, we don't want them to get their fingers trapped so there is a substantial gap between the two doors covered by a rubber weatherseal.
Piano Hinges
The stable doors on Malvern Playhouses are hinged with one-piece piano hinges and the rear edge of the door is cut at 30 degrees This ensures that, when shut, there is no risk of little fingers getting caught in the back of the door.
Loft ladder
This is what kids enjoy most about The Playhouse! The ladder is situated at the far side so that smaller children can use the wall for support while climbing.
The upstairs is ballustraded for safety. As children grow older the upstairs can be easily removed to give more headroom throughout the building.
Magnetic catches
Safety inspectors insisted that Malvern playhouse doors were fitted with magnetic catches so that all a child has to do to get out is push rather than turn a handle or knob. We took their advice as you would expect! The door has a neat circular handle on the outside which is easy for small children to grasp.
Rounded bargeboards and acrylic plastic windows
The bargeboards on the Malvern playhouse range are neatly rounded for safety. The windows are glazed with acrylic plastic.
You may think this rather elementary but compare our buildings with other manufacturers' buildings and you'll see how much better thought out they are.
Rounded framework
The 43mm x 33mm framework used in the Malvern playhouse range is sanded to a smooth finish to prevent splinters. Shown here where the sides meet the roof, you'll see that the roof is made from real timber rather than chipboard or pressed fibre board. This has important benefits if damp somehow gets into the roof at a later date since real timber won't swell and disintegrate.
