Holiday in a shed - Palstone Lodges

What could be nicer than a holiday in a shedlike atmosphere? If the thought appeals, take a look at Palstone Lodges. Designed by architects Buckley Gray Yeoman, there are 13 FSC-sourced cedar wood lodges in a kind of shedpark close to South Brent in Devon. Each has floor to ceiling windows and top notch insulation. Inside you've got all you'd want - kitchen (with Bosch appliances), steel baths in the bathrooms, gas central heating, etc, each with a private garden area. The lodges themselves come from Retreat Homes, featured on this site here. And if you really like them, you can buy one. Read more about them at the Telegraph's site here.

    Oh Alex, please encourage them to rent out these lodges. I am looking for a working hideaway for a month during the Summer and this would be perfect but it looks like you can only purchase them, rather than rent? Can you exert your influence?

  2. I'll start exerting. Have you had a look at Cove Park, featured here at http://www.shedworking.co.uk/2007/04/pod-life.html
