That is gorgeous!!! Absolutely wonderful!

I don't know if it was the one on the news - what one on the news? The only one i've heard about recently was the one that was built behind straw bales for 4 years so that they could get around planning laws...

Hi Mirrie, thanks for a brilliant link. We're trying to sneak a house 'into' a barn but nothing like that one. What inspiration. w.
Money talks - but it dont sing and dance and it cant walk.

Isn't it perfect!! Would love to live under that celling!! (Wonder if they've got broadband in there thou?)

fee.fairy- Heres the link to the bbc news...http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/1013842.stm

I know this is in the same area but it will be heartbreaking to tear down a beautiful house because of a planning permit :cussing: There is a good article on the orginal link about this thou- see http://www.simondale.net/house/context.htm

Witch way- I agree- good luck on the barn project- I'd love to do something like that...would love it if you could post pics/updates on here!

Shirlz- Have you tried copy and pasting the link directly into your browser? If that doesn't work type http://www.simondale.net/house

Hope that helps- :geek:
