I dont know if its the same now, but my friend bought the same one 1-2 years ago and she got rid of it after a month, it was too heavy to keep shifting over the garden, couldnlt get in to clean (doors not big enough) and it was hard to get rabbits out of. It might have changed now but either way, its so cute ! and so roomy!!

Fran, only the extension run is £140, the actual cottage and main part is £325!!! I hope that makes you feel better?

It does look pretty great though, I would post pics of my setup but my buns are indoors in NIC cages. My pen looks much like AngelnSnuffy's except its made out of NIC grids all cable tied together and I use a clip to make a gate out of.

Oh! Ha ha! I'm happy now...

Still i saw a brand new chicken coop DELIVERED for £170. It was one of those big building things, high enough for you to get in with a hutch bit on the side and a little nest box that poked out the side too. It was fantastic.. i wish i had more space!

Well considering I am custom making it myself ... and just looking off of the plans/picture for this cottage- I can make the dimensions and door access, etc. however I want it. So I'll be building my pen/hutch to look like this one, but with my own personal touches to it. I want to be able to have full access to all parts of the hutch/pen, and to make sure it's large enough for Flemish Giant/s. Plus I plan to put a pet bed or something inside one part for a bed for the bunny, and in the open part of the hutch - I considered putting the "wire" ... for the poo and pee to fall through. Not sure if I want to do that, or solid floor in the whole thing yet ... that's still a question.

On the run I plan to put lattice and a climbing rose or climatis to provide shade, etc. Plus a partial roof for shade. So the first "Square" comming out from the hutch would be roofed. And the sides would have climbing rose or climatis. Then the rest of the run would bejust like the run aboveon all sides/top.

OH ... and I forgot to mention ... I'm not planning on shifting it around anyway, I have a permanent location for it where it will be really nice. So there won't be any need to be constantly moving it around.
