Dolls House for a Playgroup-anyone seen one?

Hi,my daughters playgroup is looking to buy a new dolls house.It needs to be tough,large and preferably plastic(but wooden ones also considered) and accessable from all angles,so a few children can play at once.They would also like matching furniture and figures.If anyone has seen something like this or knows of any good playgroup toy sites,it would be helpful.Thanks

    My uncle is a carpenter and he once made a playhouse for a local nursery. Of course unless you live near Wickersley he won't be able to help but you could probably find a local carpenter who could make a playhouse to your personal specification.

    Edit: Sorry, just realised you want a dolls house not a playhouse but still think you night want to consider having one made.

    It would be worth them putting up a poster so the mums that attend can see. I regurly save money for my group by seeing if someone can donate before I buy
