About the host

Hosted by Claire Franklin

Host profile image
We just love the area, both of us were brought up locally and we love telling guests the best areas to visit. We’ve successfully been letting the cottage since 2011.

Why they chose this property

The cottage will be our retirement home, we live locally in tied accommodation which we will need to leave when the job finishes. We are local people who have lived here all our lives.

What makes this property unique

Gillamoor is such a lovely village, close enough to big towns but far enough away to be quiet and have sparrows in the garden and the barn owl hunting locally.
