at my sons school they are having a company install willow hideouts
one of them is sponge bobs house :clapping: it looks amazing (even tho its bare) complete with round windows
in spring it will go nice and green as the leaves grow
i want one in my garden as a den for the kids to play in
do you think Ofsted will allow it???

I love them and if my garden was suitable would love to have one. Much nicer to look at than plastic houses :)
they are quite big (my 12 year old can stand upright in one)
and only £100 so not bad, and like you say look MUCH better
they also do wigwam ones
but what will ofsted think??

Our school has a willow tunnel - been there a couple of years now and looks great in the summer.
I'd love one too!

Our local scrapstore does courses in building willow structures houses/tunnels and other stuff an I want to go next year. I have found someone that will give me the willow from their farm - I just have to work out what to do with it. I definately want to do something:) .
