About the host

Hosted by Host

Host profile image
Martyn and Marina ran a successful Bed and Breakfast for 7 years in Paros, Greece, and have returned to Somerset to offer their hospitality to visitors to the South West. They fell in love with the charm of Corner House, with its old world atmosphere, beautiful garden, thatched roof and "chocolate box" appeal. Marina is Italian and a keen cook, as well as a yoga instructor. Martyn worked for many years in the IT industry before early retirement. He is a Scuba instructor and keen home brew beer maker! Cudworth is a quiet location, but well positioned for the Jurassic Coast, Mendip Hills, and all the best sites to visit in the South West. There are plenty of local footpaths and country lanes to ramble through, with a golf course, a local country pub and the famous Perry's cider mill and museum all within walking distance. The new Swedish sauna offers a relaxing spa experience.
