Make it a haven for all the wildlife around. Put a 'hide' in the corner where you can watch nature going on, fill it with trees and bird feeders, places for hedgehogs, foxes and badgers, squirrels, bats, bird houses...

There are oodles of books in The National Trust shops about this sort of thing, as they're trying really hard to get people to look after the land and our wildlife..You can buy hedgehog dishes, bat boxes and logs for the bees from us now too.

just make it beautiful, Rosie, that's all.

Or....

You can give it to me! :0)   

I know someone who'd happily live on it, in a tent, for the rest of their lives, at peace to know it was simply 'theirs'...

You're very, very lucky and so is your Dad. I hope you both enjoy it very much.
