Cedarlodges and Gazebos by Who are Cedarlodge?
Together with our sister company, Cedartree, we are a family business based in Stokenchurch Buckinghamshire. Established some 6 years ago, we have “finessed” the construction of a wide range of very attractive-looking buildings, using Western Red Cedar as our primary material, which we source directly from managed plantations in British Columbia, Canada. We are small enough to be flexible and able to accommodate our customers’ requirements, but large enough to be able to handle increasingly large contracts. We have the space, the skilled workforce and the equipment needed to produce a range of products made by us in the UK, and backed by many years experience.
Where From Here?
We would be very pleased to hear from you further. We can phone you to discuss your overall requirements and see if we can give you the benefit of many years of experience in this particular sector. Or we would be only too pleased to come and visit you to discuss on site. And most particularly, you would be very welcome to come and visit us at our factory in Stokenchurch (junction 5 of the M40 and very easy to find and park). We can then show you our manufacturing facilities, but most particularly, we can show you our Tennessee show lodge, which will be fully operational within the factory as from the end of November 2018.

Cedarlodge buildings
Many hundreds of buildings up and down the country bear witness to the quality, style and versatility of our range of buildings, which are so popular in residential situations, schools, wedding venues and a wide variety of “public settings”. Available in many sizes, many shapes and many finishes and a wide choice of window and doors systems.

With the experience of manufacturing Cedarlodges to various specifications over the last few years, we have developed a good understanding of what is needed for “all seasons” accommodation for all the applications shown on the opposite page. Experience shows that guest accommodation providers are looking for: • Space approaching a good sized hotel room. • A large bathroom complete with bath and shower facility. • The option of preparing basic meals in a well-equipped kitchenette. • Small bar-type dining facility. • Large main bedroom/sitting room. • Broad outdoor terrace suitable for alfresco dining and/or hot tub. •T he options to purchase an unfurnished classic lodge or furnished with bathroom and/or kitchenette etc. • The freedom to choose one’s own décor and furniture. • Available in a choice of natural stained or coloured finish. •A unit that falls within the definition of a lodge defined as a “caravan” with its planning and VAT advantages, and still “capable of being moved”. •A n ideal object of “asset finance”, and lasting decades with a supporting guarantee. •A ccommodation that is extremely commercially “viable” with a very rapid payback period. • On site installation in a few days maximum. • And made in the UK by a family owned business with experience.
All the above many many words can be summarised in one… The “Tennessee”

Things That Most People Like to Know!
The Build up Options for the Tennessee 5
Is Planning Permission Needed for Cedarlodges?
Where the requirement is for residential purposes, e.g. guest or family accommodation, then subject to certain restrictions (e.g. conservation areas), the answer is usually “no”. This subject is considered at length under a separate section on our website, dealing with both residential and commercial application. But briefly, our lodges conform to the definition of a caravan and because of their relative “mobility”, they come on road transporters with their own delivery wheels. They are “capable of being moved” and are usually planner-friendly. Where they are used for commercial applications, e.g. overnight accommodation for paying guests, then we recommend a planning application and/or opinion, but for the above reasons, experience shows that planning applications are very much more likely to succeed than traditional build.
How Are They Insulated?
Please refer to the later comments on specification... A very high degree of insulation is incorporated into floor, walls and particularly the roof. As well as double glazing in all doors and windows. The resultant heat loss is minimal. And therefore the cost of keeping the lodge warm and cosy in all seasons is equally minimal.
What Forms of Power/Energy are Needed?
Ideally mains electricity, mains gas, mains water and drainage, but in many instances, all four are easier said than done. There are a great many “half way solutions”, particularly in relation to bottled and/or piped LPG gas, as well as cassette-type toilets, as well as solar and battery power… many ways… the ultimate of which enables living completely off grid, where we can depend on rain water, solar power, wind power and firewood!

What About Maintenance?
TENNESSEE 510a
TENNESSEE 509b
Cedar is one of the rare timber species which have their own built in preservatives... Called thujaplicins to be precise! As such, there is no need for chemical preservative treatment or the like… the wood takes care of itself. Direct sunlight on exposed cedar surfaces tends, over a longer period, to turn the colour from a cedar brown to a mature silver colour, a feature preferred by many architects.
509 - Classic Lodge
510 - Classic Lodge plus Shower Room and Water Heater and Storage
We can advise however on treatments to preserve the original colour an as long as is practical, but fundamentally the stability of the timber remains intact thanks to Mother Nature.
How Long Will a Lodge Last and What Sort of Return on Investment Could One Hope For?
The lodges should last at least 30 years. Occupancy levels of 50% and above are commonplace. Because of their unique “character” and their cosy appeal, revenues similar to that of a hotel room can be expected, depending on location, marketing and “environs”. TENNESSEE 501 We have it from our customers that full payback periods of 2-3 years are quite likely.
Can the Lodges be Financed?
Emphatically yes! Lodges and the like took a while to receive universal recognition, but now the business of financing our type of lodge is well advanced and there are many finance houses very keen to help.
Where are Cedarlodges Made?
By us, in the UK! More specifically at Stokenchurch, just off junction 5 on the M40. Proud to be a British manufacturer!
Why the References to American/Canadian Names?
Although most usually in a UK “scenario”, the lodges evoke thoughts of wide open “get away from it all” spaces. So much appreciated, particularly by our city dwellers. Tennessee 5 Classic with Long Side Terrace… Coloured
Where Does the Cedar Come From?
TENNESSEE 508
We buy in containers direct from our sawmill suppliers in British Columbia, Canada. They are amongst the world’s largest cedar suppliers. The cedar comes from very carefully managed cedar plantations of both primary and secondary growth.

TENNESSEE 512
What is the Construction Detail of Cedarlodges?
The floors are made from substantial 315mm x 90mm glulam engineered beams. They support floor joists interfilled with substantial 50mm top grade insulation materials. All covered in exterior grade chipboard, and in turn “floored out” with oak tongue and groove panel flooring. The walls are made from high grade studding, allowing substantial 50mm insulation. Internal OSB panelling with “ribbed effect” where applicable. Exterior walls clad in top grade cedar “bevel” boarding. Windows and doors double glazed. Highest quality door and window furniture throughout. Top brand suppliers of kitchen and bath/shower room equipment. Ceiling underdrawing in cedar, above which is 70mm insulation and genuine western red cedar shingles on the roof. We can advise on suitable foundations.
How Are They Delivered?
Cranage and delivery systems are featured in many of our photographs. After manufacture, they are “hiab” loaded onto specialist transporters and delivered as close to site as possible. Increasingly we are asked as to whether they can be located in places where access is extremely difficult, and increasingly we are finding the answer in tremendous growth in long reach cranes, capable of lifting our 4-7 tonne lodges over long distances and over great heights. A challenge, but there are ways! Please ask us also about our scheme for factory component manufacture and assembly on site.
TENNESSEE 513
How Does VAT Apply?
Again, this subject is considered at length in a separate section of our website. But briefly, where the lodges are used for “living”, then they conform to the definition of a caravan and benefit from the reduced rate of zero percent VAT (this is the favourable VAT treatment because our lodges are built to the residential caravan standard) The Tennessee 5 carries a VAT rate of 20%. This is a detailed subject and we are not VAT experts, please ask us if in any doubt. For further information, there is a government publication www.gov.uk/guidance/VAT-treatment-of-caravans-and-houseboats-notice-70120.
