There is a simple question at the heart of the proposed lithium development in Cornwall.

Not whether clean technology is good.

Not whether Britain needs critical minerals.

Not whether electric vehicles, batteries and energy storage are part of the future.

The question is much more local, much more immediate, and much harder to brush aside:

What happens to the water?

Cornwall is being positioned as a possible centre for domestic lithium production. That sounds exciting. It sounds modern. It sounds strategic. It sounds like jobs, investment and national importance.

But when a project is presented in the language of the green transition, there is a danger that very ordinary local concerns get made to sound old-fashioned, obstructive or anti-progress.

They are not.

Water is not a side issue.

Water is the issue.

The proposed Trelavour Lithium Project near St Dennis and Nanpean is not just an abstract contribution to the battery economy. It is a major industrial proposal in a real place, surrounded by real communities, real homes, real wells, real boreholes, real streams, real farmland and real people who may have to live with the consequences long after the headlines have moved on.

And that is why the water question matters.

How much water will be needed during construction?

How much will be needed during operation?

Will any water be abstracted locally, directly or indirectly?

Could mining, processing, pumping, drainage or reinjection affect groundwater levels?

What happens to private wells and boreholes?

What chemicals or process residues are involved?

Who monitors the water?

Will the data be public?

What happens if something goes wrong?

And perhaps most importantly:

Who carries the risk?

It is very easy for national policy to talk about “critical minerals” and “supply chains”. It is very easy for politicians to say Britain must produce more of what it needs at home. It is very easy for companies to talk about innovation, sustainability and opportunity.

But if a local community is expected to accept risk to its water security, then the word “green” is not enough.

There must be independent scrutiny.

There must be baseline testing before any work proceeds.

There must be public monitoring.

There must be enforceable safeguards.

There must be clear emergency arrangements.

And there must be proper compensation if private water supplies, wells, boreholes or local water systems are affected.

This is not an argument against clean technology.

It is an argument for honest clean technology.

Because clean technology that ignores local water security is not clean in any meaningful sense. It is simply moving the environmental burden from one place to another.

Cornwall has already experienced pressure on water resources. Residents have been asked to save water. Reservoir levels have been a matter of public concern. In that context, it is entirely reasonable for people to ask whether a new industrial project could add further pressure to an already sensitive system.

That does not make them anti-progress.

It makes them sensible.

The green transition must not become a magic phrase used to rush local consent. It must not become a way of telling rural communities that their concerns are less important than national targets. It must not become a moral shield behind which hard questions are avoided.

If lithium extraction in Cornwall can be done safely, transparently and without compromising local water security, then let the evidence prove it.

But the burden should be on the project to demonstrate that clearly.

Not on local people to simply trust.

There is a phrase I keep coming back to:

I am not objecting to clean technology in principle, but clean technology cannot come at the expense of local water security.

That is the line.

That is the reasonable position.

That is where proper scrutiny should begin.

Cornwall should not be treated as a sacrifice zone for someone else’s clean conscience.

If this project is truly sustainable, it should welcome the hardest questions.

Britain wants more houses — but the numbers are being made harder, not easier

The Government says Britain needs more homes.

Few would disagree.

But there is a glaring contradiction at the centre of housing policy: while politicians demand more building, the cost of delivering a new home keeps being pushed higher.

A new Home Builders Federation report says the cost of building a new home has risen by £76,000 in just five years. Almost half of that, according to the report, comes from taxes, levies and regulatory costs.

That is not a minor pressure.

It is a direct hit to viability.

Builders are being told to deliver more homes, faster and more affordably, while carrying higher costs, heavier regulation, planning delays, new levies, labour inflation, material inflation and site-specific burdens such as nutrient mitigation.

That is not a housing strategy.

That is a contradiction.

At the lower end of the market, the effect is obvious. Homes become less affordable. Buyers are pushed further away. First-time ownership becomes harder. Developers cannot simply absorb tens of thousands of pounds in extra cost per home without consequences.

But this does not only affect starter homes or mass-market estates.

It affects the high end too.

Luxury buyers may have deeper pockets, but high-end development still depends on viability. Land, planning, finance, labour, materials, architecture, interiors, landscaping and delivery all have to stack up.

When the cost of delivery rises too far, something gives.

The land price has to fall.

The margin is squeezed.

The specification is reduced.

The design becomes less ambitious.

Or the scheme does not happen.

That matters because the high end of the market is often where architectural ambition, craft, landscaping, wellness features, natural materials, space and lifestyle-led design are expected. These are not slogans. They are costs.

If the system keeps loading more cost onto each project, the result is not just more expensive homes.

It is fewer good homes.

Less ambition.

Less design.

Less quality.

Less supply.

Politicians can keep saying Britain must build more.

But homes are not built by speeches.

They are built by viable numbers.

If the Government genuinely wants more homes, it must understand what it is doing to the cost of delivery.

Because Britain does not just have a housing shortage.

It has a viability problem.

Not architecture for everyone. And that’s the point.

Hidden within woodland settings, these monolithic dome structures are designed for clients who value privacy, presence, and permanence over trend.

Form follows something older here.

Curved concrete shells. Earth-integrated positioning. Minimal openings. Structures that sit within the landscape, not on top of it.

From a distance, they almost disappear. Up close, they feel immovable.

This is not glass-box living. It’s not exposed. It’s not performative.

It’s quiet, controlled, and deliberate.

Each configuration is composed of interconnected domes — allowing for separation of space without fragmentation:

– Living – Rest – Bathing – Private retreat

All under a unified architectural language.

The materiality does the work.

Raw concrete. Weathering over time. Moss, moisture, shadow.

The building improves as it ages.

Inside, warmth. Outside, restraint.

No excess. No noise. No compromise.

This is a different kind of luxury.

Not visibility. Not status.

Position.

For landowners, developers, or private clients looking to create something that doesn’t compete — but simply exists with authority.

Most modern buildings are boxes.

Flat walls. Sharp corners. Materials that off-gas, trap moisture, and quietly degrade the people living inside them.

We’ve normalised it.

But structurally, the box is inefficient. And materially, much of modern construction is compromised.

At Lux Haven, we’re looking in a different direction.

Not backwards. But deeper.

The dome.

A form used for thousands of years because it works.

Wind moves around it. Load distributes naturally. Energy stays where it should.

But the real shift isn’t just shape.

It’s what we build with.

Instead of concrete-heavy systems, we’re exploring:

• Adobe — earth-based, breathable, thermally stable • Hempcrete — carbon-negative, insulating, naturally regulating humidity • Lime plasters — antibacterial, non-toxic, quietly protective • Natural fibre membranes — adaptable, low-impact structural skins

Even sprayed systems—where used—can be rethought.

Less petrochemical. More mineral, plant-based, and breathable.

The result?

Spaces that don’t just stand up to the environment— they work with it.

Cool in summer. Warm in winter. Quiet on the nervous system.

Not sealed boxes.

Living structures.

This isn’t mass housing. It’s not meant to be.

It’s for people who understand that how you build is how you live.

Fewer projects. Better environments.

𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵-𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗱.

Clear, practical, and unmistakable — Lux Haven Group on site, representing luxury, wellness, lifestyle, and travel, even when the work gets muddy.

A familiar Market Street property in Appledore has changed direction, with The Yard leasehold recently sold for £40,000. The deal included fixtures, fittings, and a ready-to-trade premises.

Despite generating around £90,000 turnover in just 4–5 months of evening-only trade earlier this year, the restaurant and bar format did not continue under the previous operators. This highlights the challenges faced by food-and-drink ventures in coastal villages, where seasonality, staffing, and shifting consumer habits create uncertainty.

The Yard, a double-fronted premises with a garden and around 70 covers across its restaurant, snug, and outdoor area, remains a prime central location in Appledore. The lease terms include an annual rent of £8,264 + VAT, positioning it as an accessible entry point compared with many larger commercial properties across North Devon.

Looking ahead, the site could suit a variety of alternative uses, from boutique retail or delicatessen to gallery space or flexible co-working hub — concepts that have seen growth in other coastal towns adapting to new market conditions.

Properties like The Yard show how high-street spaces are evolving. While food and drink remain important, we’re seeing demand grow for mixed-use ventures that serve both the community and the visitor economy.

At Lux Haven, we don’t just build beautiful places—we design environments that help people feel and function better.

Biophilic, wellness-led design brings daylight, fresh air, greenery, water and tactile, low-toxin materials into daily life. The result is calmer minds, better sleep, clearer thinking—and, crucially for owners and investors, properties that sell faster, let quicker, and age well.

Why wellness design works

Daylight & views support circadian rhythm and mood; occupants report higher alertness by day and better sleep at night.

Air quality improves with cross-ventilation, balanced filtration, and low-VOC finishes—less irritation, fewer headaches.

Nature connection (plants, timber, stone, water) lowers stress markers and restores attention.

Acoustic & thermal comfort reduce fatigue, supporting focus and recovery.

Mindful spaces (a quiet nook, a hot/cold “recovery” shower, a garden bench in morning sun) make healthy routines effortless.

The value case (what buyers and investors feel)

Sales velocity & absorption: Homes that feel good during a viewing convert—light, air and greenery are instantly legible benefits.

Price resilience: Distinctive wellness features create defensible differentiation, supporting premiums and protecting value in softer markets.

Lower voids & churn: Healthy, comfortable homes encourage longer stays and stronger word-of-mouth.

Future-proofing: Low-toxin materials, efficient envelopes and biobased finishes align with ESG expectations and evolving regulations.

Reduced lifecycle costs: Durable natural materials and smart daylighting cut maintenance and energy spend over time.

What this looks like in a Lux Haven home

Daylight-first planning: Useful Daylight Illuminance targets, skylights where appropriate, and framed views to greenery or sky.

Indoor nature with a plan: Real planting (including optional hydroponic herb walls) with irrigation and maintenance built in.

Materials that breathe: Timber, stone, lime plasters and low-VOC paints for healthy interiors with rich texture.

Water & air rituals: Cross-ventilation, balanced filtration, and optional contrast/“lymphatic-style” shower setups for recovery.

Refuge + prospect: Cosy reading/meditation corners paired with long sightlines to reduce cognitive load.

Quiet performance: Acoustic zoning and soft surfaces to protect focus and sleep.

For developers & landowners

Lux Haven integrates wellness from concept to handover:

Site & massing to prioritise light, wind and landscape.

Specification for low-tox, biobased materials and robust IAQ.

Landscape as infrastructure—edible/herb planting, rain gardens, green roofs.

Amenity programming—meditation nooks, outdoor rooms, recovery showers, movement paths.

Proof & storytelling—pre/post IAQ and daylight metrics, POE (post-occupancy) feedback, and a clear narrative buyers understand.

For buyers & residents

Tangible daily benefits (calmer spaces, better sleep, clearer focus).

Spaces that make healthy habits the default.

A home that expresses values—care for wellbeing, nature and long-term stewardship.

How we measure success

IAQ metrics: PM2.5/PM10, VOCs, CO₂ baselines before and after commissioning.

Daylight & glare: UDI/SDA targets with shading that preserves comfort.

Acoustic comfort: dB targets for bedrooms and living spaces.

Resident outcomes: simple surveys on sleep, stress and productivity at 3 and 12 months.

Market performance: days on market, achieved price vs. comps, and occupancy/renewal rates.

Building a tiny home may seem like an affordable way to downsize, but as the creator of the Cedar Hollow luxury 450 sq ft tiny home discovered, the costs can add up quickly. Here’s a breakdown of the expenses involved in building the Cedar Hollow, including the initial construction, the high-end features, and even the revenue potential as a short-term rental.

1. Site Preparation: The Driveway and Parking Pad

The first expense was creating the 600-foot-long driveway, which cost $4,195. This included tree removal, stump pulling, regrading, and laying 45 yards of gravel to ensure proper access to the home site.

2. Foundation: Post and Pier Setup

The post and pier foundation for both the home and the deck came to $3,866. This method involved deep piers and anchors to stabilize the structure, and it also covered the costs of excavation equipment rentals.

3. Framing the Structure

Framing the Cedar Hollow was a labor-intensive task, with materials costing $838. The frame includes three beams supporting the home’s floor joists and a ceiling pitch constructed from 2x10s.

4. Siding and Skirting

For siding, the builder spent $489 on Hardy Board panels, which were used for both the exterior walls and the skirting. This skirting was designed to insulate the crawl space and prevent freezing during harsh weather.

5. Plumbing: A Significant Investment

Plumbing costs amounted to $2,930, covering everything from faucets to water lines, hot water heaters, and washer-dryer hookups. This was one of the more expensive parts of the build, reflecting the extensive labor involved.

6. Electrical Work: A Professional Job

The electrical system was another high-cost area, totalling $1,722. This includes wiring for lights, outlets, and additional features like a Tesla charger and breakers for appliances like the hot tub and sauna.

7. Roofing: Durability Over Cost

The roofing, which cost $2,694, was another significant investment. The builder chose shingles over metal roofing to save costs, but also added extra protection with ice and water shields, ensuring long-term durability.

8. Luxury Finishes: Cedar Wood Ceilings and More

The builder opted for cedar wood ceilings, which added a cozy and luxurious feel to the home. This addition cost $3,539 and was a major design feature. In addition, the interior was painted with Sherwin Williams’ Alabaster white for a serene, light-filled space.

9. Outdoor Features: Expansive Deck and Spa Amenities

One of the standout features of the Cedar Hollow is its expansive 740 sq ft deck, which cost $16,417. The deck includes cedar decking, framing, and cable railings for unobstructed forest views. The Jacuzzi hot tub ($7,244), cold plunge ($516), and sauna ($797) further enhance the home’s appeal as a retreat.

10. Revenue Potential as a Short-Term Rental

Despite the hefty upfront costs, the Cedar Hollow is generating impressive returns as a short-term rental. In its first three months, the home made $751 in March, $864 in April, and a staggering $2,021 in May. With additional months of high rental income, this tiny home is proving to be a profitable investment.

11. Final Cost Breakdown

In total, the Cedar Hollow cost $161,300 to build, including all luxury amenities and structural elements. The cost per square foot comes to $184, making it an expensive but high-end tiny home.

If you're interested in building your own tiny home, the builder is now selling the Cedar Hollow’s construction plans at a discounted price. The plans, which cost over $8,000 to create, are available for just $500 for the first 100 buyers. The full set includes detailed plans for everything from structure to plumbing and electrical systems, making it a valuable resource for anyone looking to build a similar tiny home.

For those looking to invest in a similar build or short-term rental property, the Cedar Hollow proves that with the right design and planning, a tiny home can be both a comfortable living space and a lucrative business venture.

Unlocking the Secrets of Youth: The Benefits of Sauna and Cold Therapy

How heat and cold can turn back the clock and enhance well-being

In the quest for eternal youth and vitality, sometimes the answers lie not in creams or pills but in nature’s most fundamental elements—heat and cold. The ancient practices of sauna bathing and cold therapy are making a powerful comeback, touted not only for their wellness benefits but also for their remarkable anti-aging effects. At The Tidal Retreat, we’re bringing these age-defying rituals to our future guests, offering spa-like luxury with the power of natural therapies.

The Power of Sauna: Turning Up the Heat on Aging

🔥 1. Boosts Collagen Production

As we age, collagen—the protein that keeps our skin firm and elastic—declines. Sauna heat penetrates deep into the skin, increasing blood flow and oxygen delivery, which stimulates collagen production. The result? Smoother, firmer skin with a natural glow.

💧 2. Detoxification and Cellular Renewal

Sauna sessions induce deep sweating, flushing out toxins, heavy metals, and impurities from the body. The process triggers autophagy—the body’s way of cleaning out damaged cells to make way for new, healthier ones. This natural detox can help reduce inflammation linked to aging and improve overall skin clarity.

🛏️ 3. Enhanced Sleep and Longevity

Regular sauna use boosts the release of melatonin, promoting deeper, more restorative sleep—a cornerstone of healthy aging. Studies have linked sauna bathing with a lower risk of cardiovascular diseases, suggesting it could extend lifespan.

🧠 4. Brain Health and Mood Boost

Heat exposure elevates levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which supports cognitive function and resilience against age-related decline. Plus, the release of endorphins and serotonin leaves you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.

The Chill Factor: Benefits of Cold Therapy

❄️ 1. Reduces Inflammation and Enhances Recovery

Cold therapy—through plunge pools, ice baths, or cryotherapy—triggers vasoconstriction, reducing inflammation and pain. For aging joints and muscles, this can mean quicker recovery and less stiffness, keeping you active longer.

🧊 2. Stimulates Fat Loss and Metabolism

Exposure to cold activates brown fat—a type of fat that burns calories to generate heat. Regular cold plunges can boost metabolism and support weight management, making it easier to maintain a youthful physique.

🧠 3. Sharpens the Mind

Cold exposure has been shown to boost norepinephrine levels by up to 530%, improving focus, mental clarity, and mood. It also strengthens willpower and stress resilience—essential tools for navigating the challenges of aging gracefully.

❤️ 4. Enhances Circulation and Skin Tone

Alternating between sauna heat and cold plunges stimulates blood vessels, improving circulation and oxygenation to the skin. This process helps reduce cellulite, flush toxins, and create a toned, youthful appearance.

The Tidal Retreat Experience: Age-Defying Rituals on the Water

Our vision for The Tidal Retreat includes a state-of-the-art wood-panelled sauna with panoramic estuary views and a cold plunge pool on deck. Guests will have the option to indulge in contrast therapy—alternating between the sauna’s heat and the invigorating cold plunge—to maximize the anti-aging benefits.

Pair these therapies with oceanfront yoga sessions, organic detox meals, and tranquil views of Appledore’s estuary, and you have a recipe for turning back the clock—naturally.

🌿 Wellness Lounge

After a detoxifying session, curl up in the relaxation lounge—plush seating, a wood-burning stove, and floor-to-ceiling windows ensure that even as you unwind, the river views are never out of sight.

Sleep Like the Captain

Did you know there’s a unique opportunity to build or renovate affordable homes for Spanish locals? 🌍🏡 As highlighted in this video about Brits living in Spain, hundreds of abandoned villages across the country are waiting to be revitalized. These empty communities offer the perfect canvas for creating sustainable and affordable housing that supports local residents and preserves Spain's rich heritage.

Why this matters: ✔️ Tackle the housing crisis: Many Spanish locals, especially in rural areas, face limited housing options. Transforming these villages can bring much-needed affordability. ✔️ Government collaboration: Regional governments may support projects that align with their goals of repopulating rural areas and boosting local economies. ✔️ Social impact: It’s not just about homes – it’s about creating communities, fostering local culture, and providing opportunities for Spanish families. ✔️ Environmental sustainability: These projects can also integrate eco-friendly building techniques, making them a win-win for people and the planet.

💡 Don’t listen to the British press’s scaremongering and misinformation – this is a genuine opportunity for positive change! Investors and developers, this is your chance to make a real difference. Engage with Spanish authorities, bring your innovative housing solutions, and help rejuvenate these forgotten villages.
