My husband Bill and I have always dreamed of owning a B&B type property. I have spent 30 years in hotels and restaurants and Bill in home improvement. We have always felt that we have the perfect background to make this dream come true.
Journey Cake Farm became the final piece to this dream. It was love at first sight.
