I'd be careful about bringing the patio up to DPC level. An ACO drain may help with surface water, but you'll also need to make sure it can discharge properly into the existing gully with enough fall. What's the difference in height between the current patio and the door threshold?

I would not recommend placing a summerhouse directly on decking boards. Decking boards are designed as a walking surface, not as a structural foundation for a building. They can flex, trap moisture underneath, and make it difficult to keep the summerhouse level over time.
