Take a look at TP Toys - they last well (we've just removed a roughly 20 year old TP Toys climbing frame from the garden).

Also Wickey Toys has a nice selection.

We're replacing with two separate frames - a TP round wood swing (as it lets us use the pirate ship which we had on the old frame, and the kids love), and a Wickey Toys Fun House.

My brother in law bought a Dunster House frame - was very cheap, but didn't come with any pre-drilled holes so took a while to put together.

Good with a saw
Terrible with a tape measure so a diy option is out
Would have to pre drilled ready to assembly
We like this one

Plum Products stuff is good & fairly easy to put together, Little tykes is even better (but vastly more expensive)

All the instructions will suggest you concrete in the pegs, I'd advise you do, it makes them way sturdier!

In a previous job I used to have to build/test them to make sure they met safety standards, and those 2 brands stood out as being the best.
