David Cameron buys £25,000 garden hut to write a book inside it
The former prime minister David Cameron says he plans to write a book in a designer garden shed that has been installed at his family home. The hut, which is home for a wood-burning stove, a sofa bed and sheep’s wool insulation, is thought to have cost him £25,000.
Cameron said his wife Samantha made all the design decisions about the cottage, in which he plans to write his memoirs, BBC reports.
The former Conservative party leader said there had been “a bit of a fight” over the use of the shed:
“My children want to use it as a Wendy house. I want to use it as a book-writing room and my son wants it as an alternative bedroom. So, quite a lot of competition. When it first arrived, there was great excitement – who was going to spend the first night in it?”
Cameron bought the shed from Red Sky Shepherds Huts after seeing a similar one at his mother-in-law.
He has signed a deal late last year to write his autobiography, which is set to be released next year.
