Hobbit Herf Hut

[Undercover]

Haven't been around much due to work (bastards expect me to use a company laptop and there's no public wi-fi) and the demands of being a weekend dad and hubby. A while ago, having looked enviously at all the sheds, dens and caves in operation or under construction, I suggested to my wife that perhaps a summer house or some sort of garden building would be nice. Of course, I was 'shocked' when MLW said I just wanted somewhere to smoke cigars. Who? Me? Well, we've finally put the deposit down on a barbecue hut and I'm one step closer to having a place to go to smoke cigars when it's cold and wet outside:

Inside, it looks a bit like this ... There's a barbecue pit, which can also be used to burn wood to keep warm, so it passes the Wigan 'roaring fire with a cigar' test:

MLW continues to be ever more supportive of the hobby. When I said I wasn't sure if I wanted to have the hut smelling of cigars - I might like the smell, but others don't - she has insisted that it would be fine, that I need somewhere warm and sheltered in the winter, that it's got a chimney and that she expects it to smell of wood fire anyway. Indeed, she proudly told the landscape gardener that we are building it so I can smoke cigars and then showed him my humidors and cigar collection!

So, I will soon have somewhere to host a herf ... if anyone ever finds themselves in South Wales!

I hope you don't get burgled by the gardener! Seriously though I too have cast longing looks at one of those huts, you can find them on Ebay

That looks brilliant. Good luck with it.

Was thinking that myself and wandering how much they're charging for it .

[parnaby]

Thats ruddy amazing. I can't wait to get my own place and get something like that built.

[wolfie]

very nice , like your style

[sheppsea]

Think you've put most other smoke shacks to shame with that - look fantastic!

[Undercover]

Should add it's not exclusively a smoke shack - it'll be a family space as well. It's a bit expensive just for smoking cigars, even if that's my main aim!
