lecabine Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Hi Would anyone know of any companies supplying real log cabins in France? South-West is were we hope to move to. Would be a permanent home so needs to be a good size. Anyone had any issues over planning regs with one of these? thanks for any helpGreg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freyjabear Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 have seen some on www.pierre-et-terre-immobilier.com and there is a company in Brittany, I think in Roche Bernard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lecabine Posted February 8, 2005 Author Share Posted February 8, 2005 Hi Thanks for the info. I am looking at building from new, kit type constrcution in south west france. Anyone else who has any info from other areas much appreciated. It would be a big house that needs to be built. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Head Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 A friend who is toying with the idea had been given ball park figures of 1000 euro per square metre not including the land. There is such a build near to me and it looks ok but for the money one could do better methinks.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teamedup Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 I know a few people who have done this. Their wooden homes have come from all over the place, Sweden, Rumania and I think Finland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeb Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Rather grand log cabins......http://www.huf-haus.de/de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lecabine Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 HiWould you even want a huf-haus, can't say they appeal to me...or perhaps it's just the scary price! I was looking at the more traditional log cabin you see in mountain type resorts, as that is where it will be near. I was hoping to find a French company but they seem to be a bit thin on the ground.

moon Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 There was a tv programme in the UK about a couple from the Scottish highlands who built a large real log cabin from kit form. The cabin kit was bought from the US (kentucky I think) sounds just what you are looking for and with the dollar in the doldrums may be the place to look.Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lecabine Posted February 10, 2005 Author Share Posted February 10, 2005 Yes, Bob, I do remember that program, and as you say with the dollar so weak at the moment! Found a place in the UK that imports them from Russia at a reasonable price, but stillcannot find a French company that does the sort of thing I need. Very much like this!

Philmco Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Just south of Chalus on the RN21 there is a woodyard that always has very substantial log cabins under construction, but unfortunately no contact numbers/names visible on the premises.Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
