my ideal homestead.

There are disadvantages to being tucked away: delivery drivers phone up and ask where the house is, I've been waiting since Feb 5th for BT to put a phone line in, sheep escape from nearby fields and wander through the garden, the roads are too small to have a large static caravan delivered, if you want a shipping container you can only get a 20ft one ( the 40ft are actually cheaper but didn't fit down the road ).
