I lived in a sharming old cottage just 50 mins train ride from London before we came here. You would love Somerset, we viewed endless pretty houses and cottages before choosing the one we have now. It needs a massive amount of work, if you are not too shockable take a lookat my latest photos! Lovely to read your Blog as ever.

We decided to move nearer to where Phil worked and we wanted a garage and drive for our two cars and Phil's motorbike. Also the cottage was fine for me on my own and when I had one or two people to stay for one or to nights but for Phil who is 6 foot and me it seemed a bit small to continue to live there permanently. Plus he is a radio ham and has lots of radios etc... There are lots of cottages in the area where we live and Shere where Holiday was partly filmed and a lovely village is not too far away and has a lovely tearoom!! I hope your sister finds somewhere soon and that you will share some photographs of the place she buys!!<br /><br />Jackie, Surrey UK.http://jackieinsurrey.blogspot.co.uk/https://www.blogger.com/profile/08337359415034741431noreply@blogger.com
