"While May House is a holiday let it is also our home.
We were in a position that we could choose to live anywhere, so we decided to live where we loved!
Previously we have lived in London and the Cotswolds but we sold up when we moved to Dubai for work. We decided to buy a house in England where we could see our family and so we had a home to come back to.
In the Spring of 2021 we saw May House advertised for sale, we were unable to travel back but we fell in love; we took a risk bought unseen. In the summer we were able to travel back to England and see the house in person for the first time. The drive from the airport was very silent as we both wondered if we had made a huge mistake.
As soon as we saw May House we felt like we were home.
Initially we thought that all that was required was a new kitchen and some decorating but we were wrong. Realistically we needed to do a whole renovation; over the summer and autumn of 2021 we organised from afar via endless Zoom calls and Whatsapp messages. All of the paint colours, wallpaper, furniture, kitchens, bathrooms and tiles were decided in the one week we visited!
We have invested a lot of emotion into May House as we feel that is what the building deserved, and in return we feel that May House provides such a feeling of home.
We hope you enjoy spending time at May House as much as we do,
Rich & Hannah "
