We are the owners of 'The Nest at Winnall' and we moved here to the beautiful Severn Valley 8 years ago. We are lovers of lots of space and fresh air, and so decided to make a lifestyle change to a slower pace of life. Our move was also fuelled by the desire to let our two boys roam free and have more of an adventurous childhood amongst fields, woodland and nature. A new life in the country brought with it the inevitable introduction of animals into the family. Currently we have four chickens (Margo, Belle, Grace & Pearl) and two cats (Bonnie & Clyde). No doubt this list will continue to grow! All our animals are very friendly, and our chickens produce the most amazing bright yellow free-range eggs.
David loves chopping wood, cooking, tackling the garden, mountain biking and a nice dark ale. Karen loves making cakes, bread, jams and chutneys, growing vegetables, chicken-tending, upcycling and a great gin & tonic. As a family we are often walking, biking, having friends over, watching films, reading books and enjoying meals out - when we're not dashing around between swimming clubs, scouts & cubs, basketball and drum lessons... So much for a more relaxed pace of life!
