Description
Episode 2 of Shelters of Britain sees me sleep in a log cabin hidden in the Dorset countryside, with its own private lake. I go hunting for 140 million year old fossils by the coast, and go fishing in the lake. I spend the night in this log cabin, cook good food and chill with my dog Jaxx.

More info on the Cabin (For those that are interested):
The timber was sourced from a local forest in Oakhampton. The Cabin features 8 large panels of glass each tailor cut to fit perfectly into the frames. The mezzanine floor and staircase were a unique challenge. A complete t ree trunk was used for the staircase, with a half moon shape at the top so that it would fit flush against the floor. The steps are made from solid oak, and African Hardwood was incorporated inot the handrail and mezzanine beams. Much of the oak that was used in the cabin was salvaged from one of the great storms years ago. The floorboards on the mezzanine were reclaimed timber. The woodstove was installed on a Welsh slate hearth. And the sliding door to the bathroom is handmade from Oak in Poland. The cabin overlooks a natural lake that has been fished very little, allowing the fish to thrive and grow to a decent size. Years ago, Canadian goslings were introduced to the lake and now each spring they return to raise their chicks.
