      A greenhouse.

        exackery,

        when a house is in the 1,2mln gbp price range, the green house is no longer the green house, but the vine house

        Scooter, hats off to you, you must be a very rich man


        good luck to you

                  Er Thanks, but not as wealthy as implied though. Would still have to borrow albeit only a fraction and then income is still required.

                  On the other hand this place in Kingdom of Fife is also appealing, similar price though... might not break the bank as much as above.

                  I have a dream hoouse pictures taped to the inside of the wardrobe door to remind me why I do what I do....

                      scooter,

                      that is a beautiful place.

                      What are you expecting the heating costs to be on that place near Stirling ?
