About the host
Hosted by Host
Welcome to Carncairn, where the Reade family have lived for 5 generations. I moved back here with my wife, Amy and our young son in 2025 to take over the running of the property from my parents who still live on the estate. Amy is an artist and designer who delights in keeping up the garden with my mother, Pamela, who has transformed the environs over the past 30 years. Like my father, Richard, I am a cabinet maker who is relishing in the opportunity to continue the upkeep of Carncairn and to slowly bring our own style to the house and gardens.
Situated well away from the road our guests love the rural tranquility, beautiful gardens and local area as much as we do. We enjoy meeting our guests but appreciate that most of them come to stay for weddings, exploring, seeing family or just getting away and pick us for the tranquility and secluded nature of the property, so after meeting on arrival we respect your privacy unless you wish or need to contact us.
We look forward to hosting you at The West Wing,
Freddy and Amy
