Default Grand Decay Cumbria : six years after featuring on C4 show


Happier times: The Dome House Boutique,
pictured in 2010, was built for the
Grand Design cameras with
a swimming pool,
sauna four-poster beds
and glorious views of
Bowness-on-Windermere, Cumbria]




[Grand Decay: Just six years after Kevin McCloud called it 'awe-inspiring'
in his Channel 4 show this Lake District eco-lodge, pictured,
is tired and allegedly abandoned]

Nothing a lick of paint, a mower and some TLC can't fix.

Picture 1 - Sunny, cut lawn, brand new wood.

Picture 2 - Dim day, grass needs a trim, aged wood.

It's not that bad.

[One concerned holidaymaker wrote: 'I have booked July.
I cannot get a response from them. It's all very suspicious. I have paid £1,490.' ]

[Holiday home has a sauna and swimming pool and was designed
over two years at a cost of more than £1million
But the once-modern luxury apartment is now dilapidated
and disintegrating, with its owner nowhere to be seen
On Grand Designs show ended with it being half-finished but a viewer then
offered to put up the rest of the cash
Owner Robert Gaukroger said last year he had
to put it on the market because 'we have a loan to pay']
