    Love love love to you all - wonderful - encouraging and definitely the way forward! I would LOVE to join you! I tried to do this in Portugal, but it can't be done alone (my son moved on and settled in Finland). The land is still there, over 26 years organic class A soil, fruit trees, a Well, excellent long-term compost loo, wooden house, caravan, solar and wind power -- waiting to be loved and hoping for some wonderful souls like yourselves to take it on as a living project.

    Sounds similar to Williamsburg, Virginia with the exception that the participants in Lammas live there. Who actually owns the land and structures? Could such a community exist without donations and visiting fees? Good, arable land is always in high demand and never inexpensive. Got a nest egg, perhaps link with others with means and these could work. Poor people would have to have a lot of luck and many very lean years to succeed over a protracted time period.

    So it is basically a farm with planning permission for dwellings based on 75% self sufficiency targets. I wonder if you divided UK population and workable land on the ratio of these guys numbers in terms of land, the size of their dwellings (big) and energy needs you would come out with a sustainable model. I don't believe that this project is even close to being a sustainable model. Still a few people got a fantasy home at build cost and who wouldn't like that? Group hugs lovelies.

    dumpdigger dave Fucking is son, come live in Wales. You'll change your tune, pretty rapidly - Scottish are British too but you omitted them, different rules in different parts of the UK. I'm English and married a 1st Language Welsh woman my children are bilingual, but don't make out there is/are no cultural differences. I speak welsh and fit in, but be under no illusions there are unresolved cultural issues and saying "We are all British" doesn't help resolve them. Parts of Pembrokeshire are almost English enclaves which wouldn't be an issue in predominantly English speaking parts like South Wales. But West Wales has a very high number of welsh speakers /enclave so imagine the problem of Holiday lets in Cornwall and dial it up a notch.
