In 2018 we bought Sunshine Cottage to be our 'forever home'. As we are unable to move in just yet we have used our cottage as a place of blessing, letting families come and stay who wouldn't otherwise be able to afford a holiday, couples whose marriage has been under stress, clergy on the verge of burn out needing a retreat.
Over the past 5 years we have begun to dream about the possibility of buying the whole row of cottages (4 in total) two of which are currently empty. We have big dreams, but small income, so we are looking to achieve this by setting up a charity. The first of the cottages is now on the market, and we are needing to find the funding for an architectural survey, and deposit. Hey let's keep dreaming big, wouldn't it be great to be able to buy the cottage outright, and afford any repairs or refurbishment needed to make it a clean, comfortable, and safe home?
We're still working out the details, but do have a viewing lined up. We'll keep you updated as the project grows!
