hi guys , sinds your building in portugal , i am asking myself if you need any building permits for this kind of yurt ... or any mobile building in portugal .. we are planning a move to the mountains to try and build us a mobile home .. and looking for info on regulations.. this is appealing for people who come and visit us , as a gasthouse ... kind regards leo

+Leo TechTips In theory no planning is needed as it is a temporary dwelling. But we built a stone platform and there was some debate about that. There also maybe issues, depending on the type of land you buy, regarding staying full time in a yurt but yet to find exact details on that. CA

+Carole Anne Ferris , we do not wanne live full time in a yurt but wanne live in a log cabin and place a yurt for relatives that want to come over for a few weeks in the summer or winter. you are right about the stone foundation.. we have already discovered that it is better to make a wooden floor on poles to avoid discussion with the council. kind regards , and thank you for your kind answer ..
