Compost Toilet Testimonials
"We have been designing, making and installation composting toilets since 2005. The first compost toilet we built was for our wedding guests, up a mountain in the Snowdonia National Park where we live in Mid Wales. Our compost loo designs have evolved over the years and been tried and tested by ourselves on our small Welsh smallholding. We know that the toilets work well and survive the harshest of UK weather conditions, but you don't have to take it just from us; below is a long list of testimonials from our composting toilet customers over the years. We've delivered our dry compost toilets far and wide across the UK, from remote a remote footpath location in Scotland, to a community garden project in Northern Ireland; from an exclusive festival site in Reading, to a church yard in Yorkshire."

Shower and Toilet Unit
Hello Suzanne and Paul,
It took a while but we’re finally open. There are photos of the loo on the Airbnb site
Very happy for you to use these if you wish (probably not the first as it’s a bit untidy!)
Very happy with the unit. Thank you so much for all your help, clarity, guidance, etc.
Best wishes, Brenda and Tim
Shower and Compost ToiletWoodland Bog Standard Toilet
Hi Suzanne,
The Bog Standard Toilet was delivered to the wood on Thursday last week and we were able to assemble and set it all up yesterday as you can see from the attached photos. It is beautifully built and was easy to assemble once we realised that this one wasn’t identical to the one in the assembly instructions! We are looking forward to arranging a grand opening shortly and plan to twin the toilet too.
Please pass on my thanks to all involved.Best wishesMary Spencer
Composting Toilet for WoodlandCompost Toilet for School
"A Perfect Addition to Our School Garden!"
Hi Suzanne, The toilet Arrived and we've installed in our school garden. We struggled at first until we found we were not meant to put the walls on before the base was down! Got there in the end
The toilet is an absolute game-changer now that we can use the gardens with only one teacher.
Thanks for all your help

Disabled Access Compost Toilet
St Paul's Woodland Garden, London.We needed a compostable loo that was fully accessible. Our garden project is in a churchyard amongst old protected trees so the company we went with needed to be sensitive to this. We also wanted to work with a company who produced their own work from their own designs here in the UK and had strong green credentials. Paul and Suzanne from FRD were excellent from the start. They listened to our requirements, gave us a swift and detailed quote that played out exactly in the final cost. They are flexible, creative thinkers and are always up for working round any problems that might arise. Our loo is a major talking point and fits really well with our values around sustainability and light touch intervention in the garden. Particularly helpful right now during the pandemic as our volunteers and service users return to the project as they can use the bathroom without having to go into the main church building.

We couldn’t be happier with our Gypsy Compost Toilet! It's not only eco-friendly but blends beautifully with the natural woodland setting. The craftsmanship is impressive, with sturdy wood and a charming design that feels both rustic and welcoming. It was easy to set up, and our visitors have found it both practical and comfortable. It’s the perfect sustainable addition to our outdoor space, allowing us to offer a convenient restroom without impacting the environment. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a green, stylish solution!

Waterless ToiletsMonastery Compost Toilet
Dear Paul and Suzanne,
Here are some pictures of the composting toilet here at the monastery. We are extremely pleased with it - what a brilliant design. No odours, happy worms, and the soak away is working well and nourishing a little grove of trees. Thanks again for the guidelines you sent - it is good to have all the info, clear and comprehensive .
Thanks too Paul for your invaluable advice over the phone the other day.
My very best wishes and thanks."

Thanks so much to Free Range designs for designing and building beautiful cedar toilets which are a beautiful addition to our site. Everything was done on time and on budget, and their dedication to getting the job done was exemplary. Everyone who used the loos complimented on their comfort and ease of use. I would heartily recommend using Paul and his team to anyone considering a compost loo.
