Meet Castle & Cubby
Castle & Cubby began in our backyard in 2013, when we built an outdoor space for our first child to encourage imaginative play and time in nature. What started as a small family project turned into a side hustle, then grew into a full-scale business. Today, we’re a proudly Australian company of 15 passionate team members, handcrafting sustainable timber products that transform outdoor areas into places for play, learning, creativity and connection. From backyards to schoolyards, we work with families, educators and communities to create environments that are both beautiful and practical. Each space is designed to foster imagination, wellbeing and a sense of belonging.
We deliver Australia-wide, offering installation in metro VIC and NSW. For all other regions, our DIY kits come with clear instructions and personal support, making it easy to bring your outdoor vision to life and be the hero in your community or your child’s eyes.
