Log Cabins are classified as “Permitted Development” and usually should not require Planning Permission.
The following advice is provided for your reference: buildings under 30 square metres do not require planning permission if the following criteria are followed:
1) The building must be sited at least 5m away from the main property and not between the property and the main highway.
2) The size of the building must not exceed 50% of the garden area surrounding the property (30% in Scotland).
3) The building must not exceed a height of 4m -Our Log Cabins do not exceed 4m in height.
4) When the building is between 15-30 square metres there must be a space of at least 1m to any adjoining property or boundary –we recommend a space of at least 1m from any boundary or obstruction in order to aid assembly and maintenance of your boundary.
We advise you to contact your Local Planning Office for clarification. There may be restrictions and covenants, such as proximity to boundaries or other buildings, or you may live in a conservation area, a simple phone call to your Local Planning Office will let you to know exactly if you need planning permission.
