4. Do the log cabins come in different sizes? How many people can fit in them safely?

"Yes, our cabins are available in a variety of sizes. The most popular cabin for care homes is the penthouse style cabin 20.5m2 which can fit 10 people safely. Cabinstore also offer a bespoke service whereby we can create a cabin to any required size."

5. How have you ensured that the log cabins are safe for family members to visit care home residents?

"The care homes that we currently work with have supplied us with a detailed specification of their requirements and we have worked with them to fulfil their brief. Once painted internally, the wood is easy to wipe down and our care home partners then carry out their own deep cleans on the finished cabin and provide the necessary PPE."
