A Bit More About US!

We – Mary and Chris – have both fallen in love with North Cornwall, after years of living in London and Brighton.

Mary always wanted to live in the country, with land, animals, fresh air and dark skies. Chris, more of a townie, wasn’t so sure – but now he is a convert.

The sea is 25 minutes away. Dartmoor is 30 minutes away. Bodmin Moor is on the doorstep, and the more cosmopolitan charms of Padstow and St Ives less than an hour away.

We have fibre broadband, quicker than in many parts of London. We have wood burners in our house and in the cottage. The cottage has a genuine wooden hot-tub, made by a local carpenter.

We have food producers locally creating some of the best possible ingredients, and a range of local brewers and distillers. Award winning restaurants are nearby.

We wake to the sound of the dawn chorus, buzzards and other raptors circle the skies throughout the day, and we go to sleep to the sound of owls.

Why, we keep asking ourselves, did we leave it so long to move to Cornwall?
