This all-in-one house-and-run combination makes really efficient use of space whilst looking absolutely stunning. It is 9ft 5in long by 5ft 3in wide and 5ft 11in high.
This is a large rabbit house with an arched timber design and is made, here in Dorset by Flyte so Fancy, from curved joinery-quality Swedish redwood timber.
We offer optional cladding to continue the curve of the timber cladding of the house, down to the ground. This will give added protection and shelter under the house for your cotton-tail friend.
Adding a 3ft extension run will increase the run at ground level by approx. 12 sq ft (1.1 sq m).
The Arched Rabbit House comes with a vertical sliding door for the bunny, operated on a drawstring at the back, so he/she can step out onto the outside 'Sun Deck'. We have added a raised edge to the Sun Deck to prevent those 'wish I'd brought a parachute' moments.
The sun deck is wide enough for those lazy hazy days of summer, and a wide, long, ramp with raised edges gives them both access to the lovely green grass but also provides lots of play space. Visit our Information Centre page About Rabbit Hutches.
We do not advise adding a meshed floor to the inner run area unless you are going to cover it with a layer of woodchip or similar soft flooring - unlike cats and dogs, rabbits don't have padded feet so can easily injure their feet when permanently on the metal mesh.
Inside the Rabbit House is a removable phenolic-coated resin board floor to make cleaning very easy. The floor area measures 150cm wide x 80cm front to back and has two solid galvanised handles.
Inside will be a sleeping tray with a sidewall for cosiness and a freestanding wooden frame to hang the drinker, hayrack, and feeder for overnight refreshments.
The Arch Rabbit House is made using thick, joinery grade, certified sustainable, Swedish Redwood Timber and 18g galvanised green coated weldmesh (see About our Housing for more details).
The unit arrives in sectional panels for easy home assembly. The Run is assembled using screws and bolts through the pre-drilled holes, and all the fixings and instructions are supplied. Tools required are a cordless screwdriver and an 11mm spanner/socket. If you would like a copy of the assembly instructions, to gauge what is needed, before your purchase decision then please just email or give us a call.
