At the time I saw the advertisement for the Manor House, we were living in a caravan in Sandown on the Isle of Wight -- a lovely little island for those who are not familiar with British shores-- it sits in the solent and its climate is sunny warm and welcoming. We were running a caravan park for the summer season. Our dream had always been to own a large country house and turn the bedrooms into self-catering apartments,
but buying a large property in England was not an option, and, also France was our most favourite detination . With four children our French holidays consisted of a tent , sleeping bags, pots and pans and tinned foods all loaded into and upon our old banger--AHHH ! times were hard :) The thought of being able to afford to buy a "MANOR HOUSE" was thrilling, and the viewing of it would be the first step towards our ambitious dream....
