About the host
Hosted by Robert or Lesley Hodgson
Hi we are the Hodgson family, myself Robert, my wife Lesley, daughter Stacey and son Danny. The farm has been in the family for over 65 years and the 4 of us work hard to keep our 150acre traditional sheep farm working.
In our spare time we enjoy the odd holiday, walking and sampling all the local eatery's.
