Interesting video David! Cool video to hear how Gary got started.
Thanks Karol.. Gary is a handy man 👌
Hi David,
A fantastic idea. You should go with it.
Plus a small family pet farm for local schools visits.
Just a few questions if I may.
Do you need planning for these?
And what about sewage treatment.
Nice set up am sure he is busy looking after his customers and the farm too 👍
Lovely old gate I liked that, the worst thing about them is cleaning them before next client, Gary has made a cracking job of those huts, get stuck into them Davie it will be easy enough for a man with your skills, enjoyed the video nice to be off the farm for a change
Cheers George, I think I'd really enjoy building a hut but time for running it might be a problem...
@@sheepschool365 You are going to be to late for this year by the time you get them built, we bought ready built ones just needed put on a prepared site, but if you get the sight ready and get on with building them this year you will be totally ready for the new season next year, but they have got to be of a high standard the higher the better as ratings play a big part, good luck with it
Great video David that’s some set up a great idea for you as well 👌
That would be a great side interest for you, you and your family would be the perfect welcoming host. good luck should you decide to venture forward 👍
Cracking video as always. Always enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work
Thanks Paddy 👌
Great to see you again
Hi great video very interesting fair play to you and Gary 👍
Look up Letteran lodges in county Derry, a farmer has done similar. £255 per night, booked out months in advance
Fair dues lovely set up
Excellent buildings for a getaway. Hope you can do something similar. ❤️
Could you post more videos of projects you do in the workshop please?
Haven't done any in while. I'll try to add a bit more workshop stuff into my videos 👌
@@sheepschool365 thanks, I enjoy all videos wether that’s sheep or workshop it’s what I hope to do at some point myself.
@liam_web35 Biggest regret I have is not starting sooner 👌
Fantastic video
Cammys Fed By Farmers interview with Beachy and Hetty from This Farm Life have 3-4 cabins with spa pools as part of their getting income into the farm - worth a listen for you David or watch the cabin being installed on This Farm Life which is now on youtube
Met Beachy at Balmoral show in May. He's a great laugh.
Very good podcast 👌
Well done
❤
Not a video I really enjoyed tbh for a Sunday video
