Hi Folks.
Have the option of putting a mobile home or log cabin on a site on the in-laws farm. This would enable more frequent visits as the current arrangements of sleeping in sitting rooms etc is not ideal.....
I don't really like mobile homes - smell, insulation and they don't grow old gracefully! Log cabins are a lot nicer IMO... Its a nice site in an orchard and a little wooden house would be a better match for the site.
The site is well off the road and in behind a block of outhouses would not be seen from the pubic road ways. However, planning is out of the question as after the last permission was granted on the farm it was conditional on no planning for 5 years.
I'd imagine that planners would not be interested in chasing you for a mobile home that is well out of the way. And if they did it could be shifted off-site and sold on - no major loss. A log cabin is more expensive, not mobile and looks more like a permanent fixture - planners could / would probably be much more concerned........
Any wise words.....
