understands exactly what we were trying to do." Alan Titchmarsh MBE 2002

"We are lucky enough to live and work in one of the most beautiful and inspiring parts of the world. Our home in Cornwall with its tantalising glimpses of the sea and wrought iron balconies forms the creative centre of this world. Waking up to the sound of seagulls and the changing light on the sea, people coming and going from the hotels and promenading along the sea front makes us feel that we are on holiday at home."
