Welcome
REMEMBER THOSE HEADY pre-Covidl days, when
‘most of us spent atleast half our time away
from home: working, socialising, hopping,
taking exercise or ust hanging out with
friends and family? These days, with most of
us confined to quarters, our home really has
become our castle - for better oF for worse.
For those blessed with space and
gardens this is less of an ordeal, Never
have these been more important. Or
valued, particularly for homes in the
‘countryside. A recent poll suggests that
‘demand for homes in the Cotswolds has
risen by 100 per cent since lockdown.
‘Chance would be a fine thing for most,
though. However, there are solutions that
don't entail moving. Building an annexe in
the garden for one. Understandably, demand
for these buildings has risen too, and Gerald
Cole explores ways to create your own
retreat in Topping Out. We also feature a
garden cabin which has become home for a
‘man who didn't wish to move too far from
his roots in Devon. Read how he created a
very cosy cabin in his parents’ back garden.
