    Second world war bunker in Cornwall converted to holiday home - Telegraph

    The property - aptly named The Bunker - is situated at St Levan in Cornwall and was positioned to give the armed forces a bird's-eye view of Land's End

    Developer Liz Strutton, 38, bought it for £145,000 with and converted it into an underground home which has spectacular views from its grassy roof.

    Liz said she and her husband Mike had spent the same again refurbishing the property.

    It has now been put on the market for £350,000. She said: "It's an amazing place. It's so secluded that it's the sort of place you could live your life as a recluse.

    So, if you buy the place, do they provide binoculars, ship ID cards, and enlistment in the Home Guards?

    "It's just like an ordinary four-bedroom bungalow, it's not dark or anything. But it's very secure. There could be a zombie attack and nothing would get in."


    Wow! Shaun of the Dead and his friends could have used this place!!:D
