How I built my hobbit house for just £3,000 armed only with a chisel and hammer
Fed up with huge mortgage payments, one family decided to take matters literally into their own hands and build their home from scratch.
Armed only with a chisel, chainsaw and hammer Simon Dale moved his family to a hillside in Wales and started digging.
The result is a fully sustainable house constructed in just four months, for an astonishing £3,000, using scrap wood for floors and diverting water from a nearby spring.
