Description
The Red Roof Country Home can be opened up for play at 90-degrees, 180-degrees and any angle in between. Boasting a spacious balcony, the home also has a moveable staircase and working lights. The second-floor room on the left side, and the roof on the right side, are removable. Placing this room on top of the roof or placing the roof on top of the terrace creates a large, three-storey house to play with. Connect with the Red Roof Cosy Cottage to create an even bigger house

What our experts think
The Red Roof Country Home is lovely and bright and is fantastic for encouraging imaginative play, the superfood of the balanced play diet. It was easy to set up and our testers quickly added in other toys and other Sylvanian houses to extend their role play. Playing with sets like these helps to develop storytelling skills as children verbalise their play – this helps with their progress to writing down their own stories.
Some of the rooms are removable, meaning the children could swap and change the way they wanted the house, or even extend it to three levels. This further encourages their creativity and gives them ownership over the way they decide to layout and play with the set.
