Here's the happyhutch

6ft SYKES MASIVE Rabbit Guinea Pig Hutch & Run Combo on eBay (end time 09-Aug-09 21:30:00 BST)

The primrose idea is good, but cost wise would it not be cheaper just to get the happyhutch? Depends on what you want things to look like in your garden really.

My run I emailed a guy selling fold down runs on ebay and got him to make it to the size i wanted. (8ftx6ft)

If the weathers bad and im working the my buns have the odd day where they dont go out but they have a huge garage to themsleves its different than being in a small hutch. The indoor idea is great but you'd have to make a decision whether you wanted them indoor or out so they can aclimitise, outdoor buns in winter will find being indoors very hot and can overheat and vice versa.

Yeah I didn't think the flagged garden would be a problem, it could trim their nails a bit actually :P

The happy hutch you linked is big but do you think that would be sufficient for both Chester and Pixie to share? I though the Primrose hutch with a custom built run on the bottom will provide sufficent exercise for them and PLENTY on both running and living space.

The winter idea I would have allow them to get used to the inside before winter properly sets in. I mean bring them in one night and not the next to get them used to it. I don't like the idea of my buns being outside in the freezing cold that's all. I know they can handle it and eat a lot more food, but I'd prefer them to be comfortable
