Glen is a woodworking wizard whose imagination and skill have transformed a quiet patch of Dartmoor woodland into a place filled with story and soul. On his forest block he has built a hand crafted fantasy tiny home that feels deeply connected to the land around it. Many viewers will remember Glen from his beautifully made van, Radagast. This time he has taken his artistry even further, creating a home that shows just how much magic can come from timber, patience and a vivid creative mind.

Glen has developed a distinctive technique of carving layered plywood to reveal flowing natural patterns, turning simple sheets into detailed works of art. He has woven these carved elements throughout the home, adding warmth, texture and a gentle sense of fantasy that makes every space feel personal and alive. The house sits softly among the trees and carries the atmosphere of a place shaped with intention and heart.

His four acre woodland forms a natural extension of the tiny home. Glen has been restoring the forest, planting new life, caring for the land and placing his carved artworks along the winding tracks. Sculptural pieces appear between moss, branches and shafts of sunlight, creating small moments of wonder and adding a sense of mystery to the woods. This is a landscape shaped by craftsmanship and by Glen’s dedication to nurturing the environment he lives in.

Three wizards now reside among these trees. Radagast, Glen’s original van. Gandalf, his new tiny home. And Glendalf, the woodworking wizard himself, pouring imagination and care into everything he creates.

This is one of the most enchanting handmade tiny homes we have filmed. It shows what can happen when someone follows their artistic instincts and builds a life in harmony with the land.

We hope you enjoy stepping into Glen’s world and experiencing the quiet magic of his woodland sanctuary. To find out more about Glen’s magical creations, you can find his artwork here: https://www.facebook.com/artofspellbound/

  1. Glendalf is a true wizard of the woods and has crafted the most beautiful home for himself here. I absolutely adore what he has built into both his van and his tiny home, but what I really love is the way that his woodland becomes a true extension of his home. This is land that he truly loves and cares for, and spending time in Glen’s woodland really does feel like entering an enchanted space. When you walk the paths, you never know what magic you’ll find next! We hope you enjoy the tour. With Love, Bryce & Rasa

  2. His tips on how to acquire a good plot of woodland area are excellent. About mineral rights, right of ways, etc. It sounds like these might have been tough learned lessons.

    It’s upsetting to hear that in other countries, and the woods no less, have such strict laws about camping on your own property. I thought it was a problem in the city/in the US only.

    My sister’s home in the city burned badly enough that she couldn’t live in it. She thought, “At least I can stay next to my house to make sure it isn’t ransacked. And I’ll be close for reconstruction.” because she had an RV parked in the back. But instead, she got fined for the RV being parked there and another fine for living in it. It had been parked there for years with no issues. It was literally because her home became unlivable that she couldn’t be there. It makes little sense why you can’t camp on your own land. Sure, have rules about waste collection. But… It’s your land. 🤦

    I’m happy Glen found a reasonable solution to his parking situation.
