As per the blog post, we always recommend Sikkens.
Sorry, but I am not an expert in wood rot. Sorry to hear you are experiencing this. Who supplied the cabin?
We build our cabins on a plinth, where the cabin overhangs the base, and we also include rain sills. This is the best way to avoid wood rot.
