Cubby Houses for Australian Backyards

A cubby house gives kids a genuine space of their own in the backyard, somewhere to run pretend games, host friends, or just disappear for a while. This collection covers wooden cubby houses, from ground-level starter cubbies through to raised designs with slides, verandas, mud kitchens and sandpits.

Every listing includes full dimensions, materials, and what's included out of the box, so you can compare properly before deciding what fits your yard and how it'll actually get used.

Working out where it will go? Our guide to cubby house rules in Australia covers council approval, pool fence clearances and boundary setbacks, and the cubby house buying guide walks through styles, sizes and features.

How to Choose the Right Kids Cubby House

A few things worth checking before you buy, so the cubby house genuinely fits your yard and your kids.

  • ✓Backyard sizeCheck the full footprint of the cubby house and allow clear space around slides or climbing areas, not just the base structure itself.
  • ✓Age rangeGround-level cubbies suit younger children, while raised cubby houses work well for older kids or shared play between siblings.
  • ✓MaterialTimber offers a warm, natural look and generally supports more added features, while plastic is lighter, more portable and wipe-clean.
  • ✓Play featuresExtras like verandas, sandpits, climbing walls or slide modules extend play value and support imaginative games as kids grow.

Elevated and two storey cubbies need more clear space around them than their base measurement suggests, because children swing wide off ladders and slide exits. If you have a pool, check our guide to cubby house rules in Australia before you settle on a spot.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size kids cubby house suits a smaller backyard?

Ground-level or compact cubby houses generally suit smaller yards best. Check the full footprint including any slide or climbing attachment, not just the main structure, before choosing a size.

Are kids cubby houses easy to assemble?

Most arrive flat packed with instructions included, and assembly time increases with the size and number of features. We also offer an assembly quote if you'd prefer it set up for you.

What age is a cubby house suitable for?

Ground-level designs typically suit younger children from around 2 to 3 years, while elevated cubby houses with slides or climbing features are generally recommended from 3 years and up. Always check the specific product page.

Do timber cubby houses need ongoing maintenance?

Yes, timber cubby houses generally benefit from periodic checks and occasional care to protect the wood, particularly in areas with strong sun or coastal exposure.

Do you offer layby, invoicing or bulk orders?

Yes, traditional no-interest layby is available, we can organise an invoice or work from a purchase order, and we're happy to arrange bulk orders for schools, centres or multiple properties. Get in touch and we'll sort it out for you.
