We generally have guests staying for 6-10 weeks in the winter. Normally they bring a dog. We offer a 20% discount on stays of 4 weeks or more.

Wintering in Spain
My wife and I are both retiring this Spring and are seriously considering spending next December, January and February in Spain. I know the max stay is now 90 days. Our own holiday place is in North Norfolk which isn’t quite so appealing at that time of year! Are there any websites that specifically...

I am no expert but it sounds like you are simply buying a house to live in with some land attached so I expect that will be a normal mortgage. I don’t see how the fact that you may put a couple of Shepherds Huts on it at a later time would make a difference. I don’t suppose the hut purchase could be...

Our place in Norfolk is on Business Rates and we pay the local Council to collect the refuse. You can buy your own bins or rent from them. We bought our own. They have been great to deal with particularly when we have had to suspend the service during lockdowns. Being on Business rate has had a big ...

We live a couple of hours from our place in Norfolk and I also work away for half the Summer so we opted for a for a very local agent. It does cost us 20% plus VAT, so 24% of turnover but it is great peace of mind to have them managing it. They also make doing the annual tax return a lot easier as t...

Have they given an indication of how much that could be? We can open again in 2 weeks so I was not expect much if anything additional. The descriptions for my council cover so many industries it is hard to work out what the grant could be. We have been told we will be getting £8K which came as a ma...
