Sally and Simon moved here with their three daughters in 1997 when they gave up the unequal struggle of trying to pay bills by dairy farming. No.2 daughter has moved out, got married and had 2 babies..........one down, two to go!!

The family gathered around a tableYou can take the girl out of the farm but you can't take the farm out of the girl and we have a few animals about the place - some of whom you may get to see. Number 1 daughter has got interested in North Ronaldsay sheep and we now have two in with my mixed bag of pet ewes - , plus assorted poultry laying your breakfast eggs.

We have always been very conscious of our impact on the environment and have run our house accordingly. All our bulbs are low voltage where possible, our water usage is kept to a minimum and we recycle everything we possibly can. Therefore, in an effort to keep costs down although we were recognised as such some time ago, we are not members of any (expensive) 'Green' associations. ( they are trying to keep up with us!)
