Cabin Living Room

Pine floors and lining for a cabin that works hard.

[ Overview ]

A holiday cabin needed to sleep six, dry boots, and survive being rented out all winter. We laid solid pine floors, lined the walls in the same timber, and built a window seat with boot storage underneath deep enough for wellingtons.

[ The challenge ]

What the room asked of us

Rental turnover means mopping, dragging and damp dogs. The floor is finished in a commercial-grade oil that spot-repairs in minutes, and every board end is sealed against the weather the guests bring in.

[ Our approach ]

How we answered it

Slow-grown pine throughout, knots and all — the client wanted character, not perfection. Lining fixed on battens for airflow, floors glued and nailed for silence under excited feet.
