Key Features

  • A unique door and window shutter system with shatterproof acrylic glazing, making the Balmoral one of the best functioning all year round summer houses
  • Optional rotating summerhouse base, hidden by timber skirting upon installation
  • Supplied in an industrial quality paint finish of your choice for your luxury garden summerhouse
  • One piece slate effect glass fibre roof, however, a cedar shingle roof is available at an extra cost
  • Optional freestanding seating and choice of various upholstery options means that you can customise one of our premium summer houses to your personal taste

Relax in one of Scotts distinctively styled premium summer houses, which provides shelter for all year-round use. Our door and window shutters are fitted with lightweight, shatterproof acrylic glazing, which allows you to simply lift off and store on special brackets provided on the side of the building. At the end of the day, simply lift off of the brackets and replace. Or in cooler weather, a great way to provide protection from the elements.

The Balmoral is also one of our few luxury summerhouses that can incorporate the innovative rotating summerhouse base, allowing you to enjoy various views of your garden.

As standard, the Balmoral Summerhouse has a slate effect glass fibre roof, although, at an additional cost, a more natural-looking cedar shingle roof is available. 

Freestanding seating, with storage, and a selection of upholstery and a lounger insert for an instant bed conversion are also a great addition to the Balmoral – to wind down in comfort.
