We're lucky enough to have a couple of regular hedgehog visitors and this seems like a real bargain. Similar "Erinaceus accommodation" is on Ebay for well over £20.
It's in the shops on Sunday (alongside some other garden wildlife goodies) or you can preorder for delivery now.
This Hedgehog Igloo House is waterproof, warm, well-ventilated and safe from predators. A steel frame is covered with brushwood, with an anti-predator entrance tunnel - perfect for giving our prickly friends a helping hand to survive this winter.
Not sure about the anti-predator claim. I can't see a badger or fox having any trouble turning this over. If you are going to get one, ensure that the hedgehogs can get into your garden. http://www.hedgehogstreet.org/pages/link-your-garden.html

Ordered for the 2 that visit every night - thanks!
Excellent price!! Bought one recently for over £20 but we've just started to have a visitor! Will buy another incase there's a few more looking for homes.. also made a feeding station out of a plastic box that's been used.. keeps the foxes and cats from eating food I put out for them.

Get some tent pins to hold it down? Should help with the anti predator part.
Have one similar to this and our tortoise took it over

Why people banging on about anti predator if its in your back garden? where do you live that you fear something will sneak in and kill the poor thing? The only thing that would ever get to it would be a cat and the hedgehog does well vrs cats to start with...

The local badgers will be delighted to see all the yummy hedgehogs all gathered in their little Aldi take away goodie bag.
When will people realise those lovely cudley badgers they swoon over on BBC Springwatch are responsible for eating all the hedgehogs up.

Got a couple of hedgehogs visiting, feeding them every night. One has a house next door but the other may have been homeless. Bought a couple of these last week and after just 3-4 days one has been occupied - success!
