#1BUNNY BUSINESS The Grove Red Cedar Double Decker
Cedar is the best wood you can put a rabbit in. It naturally resists rot and repels insects — no annual preservative treatment, no warping after two UK winters. The Grove pairs a sheltered sleeping deck with an open ground-level run in one footprint. The slide-out tray is engineered to the bracket; it won’t bow or jam after a season of use. This is the hutch we’d buy ourselves.
Pros: Cedar construction · No-treatment longevity · Integrated run · Deep sleeping chamber · Quality hardware
Cons: Premium price · Heavy (assemble in-situ)
Dimensions: 147 × 57 × 85 cm

#2Kendal 6ft Outdoor Rabbit Hutch & Run
The best all-rounder on this list. 14mm Scandinavian tongue-and-groove is noticeably heftier than competitors at this price, and the double-sized integrated run gives rabbits permanent exercise access. The run can be positioned on either side, which is more useful than it sounds when you’re navigating a narrow garden.
Pros: 14mm T&G timber · Double-sized integrated run · 24/7 access · Flexible positioning
Cons: Heavy · Assembly takes time
Dimensions: 150 × 120 × 120 cm

#3The Hutch Company 6ft Chartwell Double
Full 6ft of double-storey living space from one of the UK’s most respected hutch makers. Tongue-and-groove throughout, solid plywood floor, proper pitched felt roof. No integrated run — but for owners who free-roam or already have a separate run, this gives the best pure sleeping and sheltering space on this list.
Pros: Full 6ft double storey · T&G quality · Plywood floor · Pitched felt roof
Cons: No run included · Premium price
Dimensions: 183 × 65 × 130 cm

#4Kendal 5ft Outdoor Rabbit Hutch & Run
Same Kendal quality as the #2 pick in a 5ft footprint. Identical 14mm T&G timber, same integrated run design, same hardware quality. This is the right choice when the 6ft version physically won’t fit. The smaller interior is the only real compromise.
Pros: Kendal quality at smaller scale · Integrated run · 14mm T&G
Cons: Less space than 6ft version · Still a significant investment
Dimensions: 152 × 120 × 117 cm

#5The Hutch Company Chartwell 5ft Double Luxury
The most interior floor area of any 5ft hutch on this list. The double layout with near-2ft headroom means rabbits can fully stretch and binky on both levels. 10mm tongue-and-groove panelling and a proper plywood floor. Best for owners who already have a run, or who free-roam in a secured garden.
Pros: Maximum floor area · Near-2ft headroom · 10mm T&G · Plywood floor
Cons: No run included · Run needed for welfare compliance
Dimensions: 152 × 61 × 122 cm

#6PawHut XL 2-Tier Rabbit Hutch & Run 230cm
At 230cm it is physically the longest hutch on this list. A full-length run at ground level with a sheltered sleeping deck above — a format that works well for two rabbits. Asphalt roof, lockable doors, and slide-out tray. The timber is thinner than the Kendal or Chartwell but the price is less than half, which makes this extraordinary value for the space it delivers.
Pros: Longest footprint on the list · Full-length run · Great price-to-space ratio
Cons: Thinner timber · Annual treatment recommended
Dimensions: 230 × 53 × 93.5 cm

#7Eggshell Smokey XL 180cm Rabbit Hutch
Eggshell is a UK brand that sweats the spec: anti-fungal treated fir, 3mm plastic-coated mesh (noticeably harder for foxes to snap than the thin wire on budget picks), and a proper night shutter for winter security. The 180cm is a genuine 6ft. Loses points for not including an integrated run at this price.
Pros: Anti-fungal treated fir · 3mm predator-resistant mesh · Night shutter · UK brand
Cons: No run included · Mid-range price for hutch only
Dimensions: 180 × 53 × 85 cm

#8PawHut Deluxe 2-Storey Rabbit Hutch 210cm
At 210cm with two storeys and an integrated run, the value here is hard to argue with. Timber is thinner than the premium picks — treat it annually and it will last — but everything functions correctly. Asphalt roof handles UK rain well. This is the hutch we’d recommend to a first-time owner on a strict budget who still wants a genuinely large setup.
Pros: 210cm with integrated run · Two storeys · Best budget large combo
Cons: Thinner timber · Needs annual preservative treatment
Dimensions: 210 × 45.5 × 84.5 cm

#9Leisure Zone Weatherproof Wooden Hutch & Run
The most accessible price point on this list for a hutch-and-run combo. The weather-resistant treatment means it handles UK conditions better than untreated budget alternatives. Trade-offs are honest: thinner timber, a slightly tighter sleeping area, and lighter wire mesh. For a first rabbit on a tight budget, this beats anything cheaper.
Pros: Lowest price for a full hutch+run · Weather-resistant treatment
Cons: Thinner timber · Lighter mesh · Smaller sleeping area
#10PawHut 54” Two Floor Wooden Rabbit Hutch
The most compact entry on this list at 136cm. Included because the two-storey format delivers vertical living space that many longer single-tier hutches at this price don’t. Lockable doors, asphalt roof, removable tray. The right choice when garden width is the hard constraint and two floors can compensate for shorter length. Always pair with a daily run.
Pros: Compact footprint · Two floors · Lockable · Asphalt roof
Cons: 136cm is borderline “large” · Must add a run for welfare
Dimensions: 136 × 50 × 93 cm

How We Rate
Ratings are out of 10.0. We assess each hutch on five equally weighted factors:
- Build quality — timber thickness, treatment, hardware
- Space — floor area and headroom against RSPCA minimums
- Weather resistance — roof design, felt or asphalt, drainage
- Value — what you get per pound spent
- Practical usability — cleaning access, run integration, door design
No hutch on this list scores above 9.5 because there is always a compromise at any price point. A 9.4 is a genuinely excellent product we would buy ourselves.
