With small gardens often the idea of a climbing frame can seem a bit far fetched. However, with new design and space saving ideas it is becoming more of a reality for small gardens up and down the UK. From our Tower range to solo swings, there’s a climbing frame perfect for all gardens big and small. In this blog we’ll look at those climbing frames perfect for small gardens and then which one is right for you.
What makes our Climbing Frames stand out?
Our range of climbing frames are both safe and stylish, able to seamlessly integrate into any garden while also acting as a aesthetic enhancement. Featuring pressure treated wood free from any chemical treatment, allowing for a natural look while delivering long-lasting resistance to rot, decay, and insects. With plastic safety caps and smooth-planed surfaces that minimise splinters and bumps across the range, offering added reassurance for parents while kids play with confidence.
Space Saving Swing Sets
If you’re looking for the best space saving option for your garden then look no further than our range of swing sets. For the most compact gardens the single swings’ sleek design and minimal footprint mean it can be added to any space with little fuss. Featuring thick poles and the same secure fastenings found across the range, Mercia’s swing sets are a space efficient source of fun.

Room for a Tower?
Although a tower might seem out of the question, with our less grandiose climbing frames there might be room in your garden. Sharing the same safety and iconic design as our swing range, with it's pastel accents, natural wood finish and built with safety in mind. Due to it's very nature, the tower climbing frames have a very small footprint, as your children are able to ascend up the tower no matter the size of your garden. You can even combine a solo tower with a climbing wall, keeping all the fun up off the ground, limiting the floor space needed for these sets.

Cosy Cottage Playhouse
Alternatively, for an even more space saving choice is one of our playhouses. A playhouse is far smaller than an ordinary shed and sometimes even smaller than our climbing frames. With only certain playhouses coming with slides they offer an extremely compact choice for those with tight gardens.

What are the Best Climbing Frames for Small Gardens?
Although the choices can feel limited for smaller gardens but here at Mercia we don't believe it has to be and we've got an extensive range to prove it. Hopefully during this blog we've shown you the best sets to make the most of your space and now from those options we've picked our favourites, perfect for any garden, but ideal for small ones.
Single Swing with Climbing Wall
Just over 2 meters on its longest side while featuring both a swing and a climbing frame allowing for double the fun while keeping the scale down to a minimum.

Climbing Frame with Slide
Once again maximising the fun for as little space as possible even the smallest climbing frame offers plenty to keep youngsters entertained, featuring both a slide and a mini climbing.

Snug Tower Wooden Playhouse
Keeping it compact with our smallest playhouse the snug, but with a sense of adventure raised up onto it's own tower.
