I’m a quiet person who loves animals, nature, sport, family and running my B&B. My husband David is an Electrical Design Engineer. We love making people happy, we’re a bit old school, we believe in treating others how we would like to be treated, using manners and being respectful to those around us. We’re easy going, easy to talk to, friendly and approachable.
