Hippy residence of the week: Black Sheep House

blacksheep-house.jpg
Houses don't get much greener than this: a former sheep shed, Black Sheep House on the Isle of Harris was renovated to its current glory by Christine and Pete Hope, who have turned it into the ultimate getaway.

With a 'living' roof, the house blends so perfectly into the scenery that it cannot be seen in aerial photographs. And the good news is, you can visit it as part of your eco friendly holiday in the UK if you've got between £700 and £1,100 a week to spare. With its truly breathtaking views and a Japanese soak tub I can't imagine anywhere better to escape the city [Via Kits and Mortar]

Anyone interested can view a 360 degree immersive image of the interior, done about halfway through the build. It shows the amazing timberwork of the frame and roof before it was covered by plaster, and can be seen on the builders' website - www.milesofharrisconstruction.co.uk
