We weren’t planning on writing a blog today. But when we all arrived at Keops HQ this morning and saw the blue skies, felt the warmth in the air, and smelt the freshly cut grass outside the office, we looked at each other and said - this is what it’s all about, isn’t it?

It’s no secret that the weather in the UK can be... unpredictable. But lately? It’s been glorious. The kind of sun that makes you want to throw the windows open, have lunch outside, and spend all day in the garden.

We’ve checked the forecast (multiple times - just to be sure) and it looks like the sunshine is here to stay for at least another week. Fingers crossed this is just the beginning of a long, hot summer.

And of course, working in the world of log cabins, we can’t help but daydream a bit about how amazing it would be to enjoy this kind of weather with a Keops cabin in your garden.

The weather is making us dream big

There’s something about warm mornings and golden evenings that gets everyone thinking about their space. How to use it. How to enjoy it more. How to turn that underused patch of lawn into something really special.

We’re already hearing from customers who are feeling exactly the same. People who’ve had “build a garden office” or “get a summerhouse” on their to-do list for years, and have suddenly decided - right, this is the year. We love that.

And it’s not just about practicality (although having a cool, quiet place to work from home in this heat is definitely a bonus). It’s about lifestyle. Wellbeing. Creating a space that gives you breathing room - whether it’s for morning yoga, evening drinks, a creative studio, or just a bit of peace and quiet.

It’s perfect timing

Here’s the thing: if you start planning now, there’s still plenty of time to get your cabin designed, ordered and installed in time for summer.

Imagine this:

A glass of something cold on the deck as the sun sets
Doors flung open to let the breeze drift through
A cosy, insulated space for cooler evenings
A proper retreat from the noise of everyday life

That’s the joy of a Keops cabin - they’re made to be used year-round, but really come into their own when the weather turns beautiful.

What it’s like at Keops HQ today

We're lucky to be surrounded by green space here at Keops, and today it's looking its best. The grass has just been cut, the sun is bouncing off the cabin roofs, and the sky is the kind of blue you usually only get on holiday.

We’ve taken a few photos this morning (thanks Gemma!) so you can see what we mean. Honestly, if we weren’t at work, we’d all be out there with a book and a cup of tea. Or a BBQ. Or both.

It’s one of those days that makes you want to stop scrolling, get outside and soak it all up - and we’re here for it.

If you’ve been thinking about a cabin…

There’s no better time to start the conversation. We’re always happy to talk through your ideas - whether you’ve got a clear vision in mind or don’t know where to begin.

Our cabins are completely bespoke, which means we can design something that fits your space, your needs, and your budget. We use high-quality Scandinavian timber, proper insulation, and expert craftsmanship to make sure your cabin isn’t just a seasonal treat — it’s a long-term investment.

And if you want to get inspired first, you can:

Visit our show cabin at the NSBRC in Swindon (open 6 days a week)
Watch our latest customer video case study on YouTube
Or just drop us a message - we love a good cabin chat

Here’s to a summer of outdoor living

If this sunshine is anything to go by, we’re in for a stunning summer. And while we can’t control the weather (we wish!), we can help you make the most of it with a cabin that turns your garden into the best room in the house.

So whether you want a space to work, relax, host or just escape for five quiet minutes - we’re here to help you build it.

Enjoy the sun, and we’ll see you out there.

If this weather’s got you thinking about cabins, why not come and visit us at Keops HQ? We’ve got appointment availability over the coming weeks, and we’d love to show you around. You can explore our cabins up close, chat through your ideas with the team, and enjoy the sunshine while you’re here.

Just get in touch or book your visit here - the kettle’s always on, and the view’s not bad either.
