Does anyone have any knowledge or experience on these type of homes?

My ideal home would be in an isolated location. I live in such an area so there are plenty of isolated areas with access. Is renting a plot of land possible, or buying?

Would there be restrictions on type of home allowed by the local council?

How long would such a home typically last?

I would like eco friendly and if needed then electricity also.

Would it be possible to have plumbing and electricity in isolated locations?
