I'm really thinking of doing this, with the cabin, I'm only 18 and work full time but my dream is something like this, the rents have said 'maybe' I could do this if it didn't effect them too much, I wanted a home salon at 1st but I couldnt because of the mortgage etc and then a family trouble meant my younger brothers + sisters have taken up the spare room... could anyone give me any info on this? Will i need permission etc, I read the post above and it would be more than 7ft from the house, but next to the garage? Would this still count do you think? Any help so appreciated, I love love love the idea of a cabin! The clients would come in via the back gate.... like I said any info really appreciated!!
