About the host
Hosted by Michael Finney
A family of five with the kiddies aged 12-17. Originally we're from South Devon (just outside Exeter) but have been living in London for the last few years.
Why they chose this property
We've always loved North Devon's relative remoteness and lack of tourists (especially when compared to South Devon), but the opportunity to buy uninhabitable Georgian rectory on the beach and in the middle of a pretty was irresistible. It too over two years to restore and renovate the Rectory, but we're delighted with the result. Our perfect house!
