The project

Over the past three years we have designed and built three oak framed buildings for Tracey and Dave at their home near Shaftesbury in Dorset, each made to sit naturally alongside the existing stone cottage and barns.

The main building is a large oak framed outbuilding that combines several uses under one roof: a 4m × 6m insulated gym, three garage bays and a two-bay insulated workshop, finished with a log store on the end. It is clad in Siberian larch feather edge boarding on Marnhull stone plinth walls, with Accoya barn doors and a Spanish slate roof fitted with solar panels.

Closer to the house, we added an enclosed oak framed glass porch and a single oak carport, both built with the same Marnhull stone and larch cladding so all three buildings feel like they belong together.

Dorset Timber Framing have built 3 oak frame buildings for us over the past 3 years. A car port, a glazed enclosed porch and an impressive 3 bay garage/workshop building. Dean and his team worked with our ideas to produce designs for beautiful and practical solutions in oak. Having received clear quotations and an easy to understand pricing structure, and a committed start date, we confidently decided to ask Dorset Timber Framing to go ahead with the work. All of Dean’s team, without exception, were not only skilled but were friendly, polite and a pleasure to have around. The attention to detail and the use of high quality materials at every stage means that we now have 3 stunning bespoke oak buildings that complement our home beautifully. We couldn’t be happier and would certainly recommend this company.
