PROUD homeowners Archie and Anne Hunter have taken visitors on a tour of their £1million eco-house made from recycled materials destined for the rubbish dump.

The environmentally-friendly home in Rosewll, Midlothian, took more than five years to complete after theHunters began collecting materials.

Now the couple are relocating to the Borders and have put their Orchard House up for sale. Hundreds of househunters flocked to the one-off property at the weekend as part of Midlothian Doors Open Day.

And Archie, 56, was delighted to show interested viewers award-winning home which includes a toilet once used by Pope John Paul II.
