    I'm looking to get a plastic playhouse for my daughter. I'm shocked at the price of the little tikes !! I've tried second hand on adverts ect but they get snapped up so quickly

    I like the look of the Keter range but can't find a stockist who delivers to Ireland

    Any suggestions welcome

    We saw the cost of them and decided to get a wooden one instead.

    Did the wooden one weather well ?

    Argos have a pink one for around €100. Don't know about quality

    I saw one in B&Q the other day think it was 75. Similar one in Smyths for around 100. They were very open though, there were no shutters on the windows like on the little tikes one. Bloody expensive for a decent one alright.

    We bought a cheap one in world of wonder a few years ago. It was grand and the kids loved it, but it got destroyed in a storm

    I dunno if a more expensive one would have survived the gales any better.

    Argos have a lot of their outdoor toys on sale atm. I think I saw a playhouse for about €75 with the sale stuff.

    It won't do you any good now but at the end of the summer B&Q usually do a clear out, I picked up a wooden play house for 100 euro. Otherwise adverts is your best option, if you set a search alert you will receive emails when a new item is posted.
