Located at the entrance to Carlingford Lough in<br />
Northern Ireland is the privately owned Cranfield<br />
Caravan Park. With its long beach frontage it offers<br />
the perfect coastal getaway. Decking (NI) was asked<br />
by the park owners to design and quote for the<br />
supply and construction of low maintenance leisure<br />
decks to complement the park’s latest range of<br />
contemporary holiday lodges.<br />
Given the exposed nature of the beachfront sites,<br />
each leisure deck required a substantial structural<br />
subframe. Deck25 solid composite decking was<br />
used extensively for all deck surfaces and perimeter<br />
skirting. The solid composite board was chosen for<br />
its exceptional resistance to weathering in the salt<br />
air environment, high slip resistance and for its 20<br />
year structural warranty.<br />
Sliding patio doors now open onto each<br />
panoramic deck. Crystal clear glass panes ensure<br />
uninterrupted views of the Irish Sea, tinted glass<br />
panes to the sides maximise privacy. A gently<br />
inclined wheelchair accessible boardwalk runs<br />
along the side of each lodge, eliminating the<br />
requirement for steps. The completed decks<br />
surpassed the expectations of the individual lodge<br />
owners and satisfied the park owners on all counts.<br />
CheshireHuts has installed various huts, from<br />
therapy rooms, beach huts to mobile houses.<br />
The fully tailored experience means you can<br />
design your dream hut.<br />
CheshireHuts installed a luxury glamping hut,<br />
with a private dining space, deep in the heart<br />
of a working farm in the Cheshire countryside.<br />
Enjoying the idyllic, elevated location outside the<br />
small town of Tarporley with far reaching views<br />
of the Cheshire planes.<br />
Owner Katharine Swindells said:<br />
“CheshireHuts made our dream business<br />
venture of running glamping Airbnbs in the<br />
exclusive Cheshire countryside come true. The<br />
craftsmanship of the hut was of the highest<br />
quality, with CheshireHuts guiding us through<br />
every material choice for our specific needs. The<br />
process was seamless, with the option to easily<br />
add on features like a log burners and space<br />
saving ideas.<br />
“CheshireHuts not only met but exceeded our<br />
expectations, making the entire experience an<br />
effortless journey. Our success has motivated<br />
me to explore the possibility of having more huts<br />
made, solidifying our position in the glamping<br />
Airbnb market.”<br />
