Owner Carol Cavendish is “absolutely blown away” by the reaction to her design which was built by set designer, Billy Cessford, who also works at Redcar and Cleveland College.

“It has gone viral were in America, Australia and China it’s absolutely crazy. I’m ecstatic it’s beyond belief from anything we expected,” she added.

The Ground Keeper’s Cottage is part of a £500,000 investment at North Shire which also includes Story Book Cottage, Hobbit House and Enchanted Barn.

Owners, Carol and Karl also obtained a grant from Rural Development Programme for England which provides money to projects to improve agriculture, the environment and rural life.
