The RWAF recommends that a pair of average-sized rabbits be kept in a single enclosed area of at least 3m x 2m by 1m high. Our large walk-in rabbit run is 3m x 2.5m by 2m high so when this is combined with the hutch should meet their recommended size guideline for a hutch and run. We recommend trying out our new Anti Chew Strips and taking a close look at all the steps you can take to stop or at least lessen the chances of your rabbit chewing things they shouldn't. As long as you aren't intending to keep a very large breed like a Flemish Giant rabbit or French Lop then this hutch is our recommended hutch for everyone looking to keep rabbits. It's also perfect for Guinea Pigs too! Yes, at over 6ft by 2ft by 2ft this hutch has been specifically designed for people who plan to adopt their rabbits and give them as much space as possible.

As the company offers bespoke hutches you can customise to suit your needs, for example they offer the option of a sliding door for access to a run, shutters, a choice of mesh or solid doors, taller legs or a hinged roof. My thoughts: Great head height, nice study mesh and catches out of the box, but a little more overhang on the roof would have been nice for weather protection. Chartwell Single Luxury Rabbit Hutch My thoughts: A little more expensive, particularly if you add in preservative, but the build quality is good and treated well it should last a long time. Large Rabbit Hutch The majority of the wood we use in this product is a highly durable, kiln-dried white pine which is noted for its resistance to decay and rot. Most rabbit hutches made in the U.K use this type of wood. But unlike many other manufacturers, we use more of it.The feet are also adjustable too, by up to 2cm, so you can balance the hutch if the ground is not even. Choose the perfect hutch for your rabbit or guinea pig, browsing by size, style or brand name depending on your own personal preferences. The 6ft Rabbit Hutch is our largest rabbit hutch. If you are rehoming a rabbit from a charity or RSPCA then this is the hutch to go for. My thoughts: This is nice looking hutch, with a very sturdy design, although I'm personally not keen on a fixed centre panel because it restricts access (particularly if you've got short arms). It's a little more expensive than average but it looks built to last. 6ft Single Hutch Happy Hutch is another well established hutch building company. This hutch has ship lap cladding, 19g weld mesh and 4" legs and shutters are available as an option extra. It has one solid and two mesh doors and the hutch is pre-treated with preservative. The door latches are just thumb twists so will need upgrading to bolts.

Foxes are by far the biggest threat that your pet will face so if you are going to keep your rabbits or guinea pigs outside then we also urge you to take these added precautions especially if you know you have foxes in your area.

Anybody with a larger garden can opt for one of our giant hutches. These 6 foot hutches combine a hutch and run so your rabbit has room to play and exercise. It also gives your rabbit access to plenty of grass and lots of spare room. We have tested a few designs but have found that having a 3m by 2m by 1m run attached directly to the front of the hutch makes it difficult to access the doors. This is the reason why we have yet to launch this style of run for the 6ft Hutch and instead recommend you consider a walk-in run if you wish to comply with the RWAF guidelines.
