They produce a range of log cabins: http://logcabins.co.uk/the-keops-interlock-range-of-log-cabins/
A client of mine has one in her back garden that she uses as her office. It's very well appointed and even has a toilet and air con.
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is?
No minefield just badgers and foxes!
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
I would also have a look at the Land is Ours: http://tlio.org.uk/chapter7/
they've helped several friends and lots of folks get PP for off grid living.

Surely that's a contradiction ?

You should suggest a rebrand (maybe with a snazzy logo)
Also there is a bloke on yootoob called Kris Harbour that is doing some off grid construction, water power etc. in the UK. Might be of interest. He's currently building a big soil bag workshop!

There are lots of myths bandied about on this subject, they are all false and people have literally been arrested on their own land if they've relied on these myths. The only way you can legally live on your own land is if it is classified as for residental use. Land that is classified as different needs to have PP to change this use.

It is very very difficult to get planning permission for a new house in the countryside as it is not supported by national planning policies, with only a couple of exceptions. One way is to prove that there is an the essential need for a rural worker to live permanently at or near their place of work in the countryside; there are stringent financial and functional tests for this and it requires a report produced by a qualified person. In Wales there is the One Planet development for low impact dwelling; there are a lot of highly stringent criteria to meet, and if approved, you must live in accordance with a detailed management plan and submit annual reports etc.
Does the smallholding have any existing buildings or dwelling?
There is a small barn there,that has been purpose built with three stables etc.
Has mains electricity and water.
Would like to build a log cabin in one of the fields. Pipe dream?

Could he stay in that for a bit on his own land?
Without residential PP you can only stay for 28 days in any year (I think it's 28, it's in that region). I've known folks who lived in benders who got kicked off their own land.
