Our story
Driven by curiosity, we created something meaningful together
Dating back to the 16th century, Redford was once a traditional smallholding, farmed for generations and owned by the same family for over 100 years. When we discovered it in 2009, it was a collection of derelict historic buildings, including a Grade II listed Elizabethan farmhouse, two redbrick barns and a Victorian stable, set within 12 acres of overgrown countryside.
Living in Bristol with two young children, we were looking for a new adventure and a slower, more rural way of life. Redford offered the perfect opportunity to create a family home alongside a countryside hospitality business.
What followed was a labour of love. After two years of hard work, countless challenges and the help of a wonderful team of local builders, we finally moved into the restored farmhouse in the summer of 2011. It became our much-loved family home for the next 15 years.
With our family settled, we turned our attention to the barns and stable. From the beginning, we'd imagined transforming these beautiful old buildings into welcoming spaces where families and friends could gather, slow down and enjoy time together away from the bustle of everyday life.
