David Cameron has purchased a second shepherd’s hut as part of renovations on his £2m Cornwall holiday home.
The former prime minister posed for publicity shots with his £25,000 garden retreat last year.
He described the handcrafted cabin as “jolly nice looking”, and has now bought another.
The hut has green cladding and a black plastisol-coated metal roof, identical to the first.
Mr Cameron, who is now the president of Alzheimer’s Research UK, bought his first shepherd’s hut to use as a writing room for his memoirs, while his children wanted to use it as a Wendy house.
The luxurious huts, on black wheels, are made by Paul Bennett at Red Sky Shepherd’s Huts.
Prices start from £20,000 and rise to £25,000 before optional extras such as stoves, kitchenettes, bathrooms and French doors are added. Mr Cameron has a wood-burning stove in his Cotswold hut.
Mr Bennett used money released from his pension under Mr Cameron’s Tory government reforms to start the Oxfordshire business.
The businessman declined to comment on Mr Cameron’s latest purchase.
