Shire Sandpit with seats

Bring the magic of the seaside to your own back garden with the Shire Sandpit with Seats. Perfect for sparking creativity and encouraging outdoor play, this classic garden favourite will keep little ones entertained for hours — whether they’re building sandcastles, digging for ‘treasure’, or simply enjoying the feel of sand between their fingers. Expertly crafted in the UK from high-grade, FSC-approved timber, the sandpit is designed to be durable while fitting neatly into smaller garden spaces. A clever foldable lid keeps the sand clean and safe from animals and debris when not in use, and when opened, it transforms into two handy bench seats — ideal for both kids and supervising adults. Please note that a floor is not included; for best results, we recommend placing weed control fabric underneath. The lid is not waterproof in order to meet safety standards, and sand and toys are not included — allowing you to choose exactly what you need for the perfect play experience.

FAQs

Does the sandpit come with sand included?

No — sand and toys are not included, so you can choose your preferred type and quantity of play sand.

Is the lid weatherproof?

The lid is not waterproof to comply with safety standards, but it is designed to keep out animals and debris when the sandpit is not in use.

Can the sandpit be placed directly on grass?

Yes, but for best results and to prevent weeds from growing through, we recommend using a layer of weed control fabric underneath.

Roof Tiles & Fittings:

We recommend ordering an additional 10% of roof tiles to allow for any breakages that may occur during delivery or handling. Roof tiles are naturally fragile, and having a few extra on site helps prevent delays and ensures your roofing project can be completed without interruption.
