About the host

Host profile image
We are Sophie and Richard Leech and we live in Silkstone near Barnsley where we both work full time. I am a Practice Manager for a GP Practice in Leeds and Richard is a Director of a family business together with his Mother and Brother and they are agents selling sports apparel to retailers in the North of England. Richard is also Chairman of our Parish Council and we are both involved in community projects on a voluntary basis.

Why they chose this property

We bought this house in 2007 as it was just 20 minutes from my French grandparents house in Vaux sur Mer. We called it 'Les Hirondelles' which is french for Swallows as there are a pair of swallows who nest in the barn every summer. The house was a bit of a ruin when we bought it, it had to be practically knocked down and rebuilt as when building work started they found there were no foundations to part of the house. But we fell in love with it despite nicknaming it 'the money pit' for a few years! we could see the potential albeit with a lot of imagination! It took a lot of hard work and even more money to get it to the standard it is today. We have spent every holiday at the house working on it renovating the building into a lovely 2 bedroomed and one bathroom holiday cottage. We redecorate every year and take pride in presenting it in the best way we can.

What makes this property unique

We love Les Hirondelles, the sun pours in to the room all day and the french doors open straight onto the terrace. We left one of the internal walls in limestone which looks amazing and although we couldn't keep any of the original beams as they had perished, we have left the new beams exposed to full roof height and have whitewashed them.
The garden has been a labour of love too and we have recruited a wonderful gardener now, Antoine, who comes every 2 weeks to look after it. We invested in a ride on mower last year as the garden measures half an acre! We have planted a herb garden on the terrace for our guests to use at the suggestion of a past guest, which is very handy for barbeques.
