About the host
Hosted by Sue & Rob Greenfield
We - Sue & Rob - both grew up on the Island and have always stayed living on our side of the water. We moved to Foinavon with our small daughters in 1991, drawn by it's situation and views. We've spent many happy years here, the girls attending the local schools before leaving for university. As teachers, one still lives and works on the Island, the other having moved to live and work on the mainland with her husband, whose work took them away. Every time she visits, it is important to her to take the scenic route, followed by a drive along the seafront, before arriving. That's what our Island does to you!
Rob has recently retired and partly looks after the property, Sue has now finished her work at the local hospital.
We chose to buy Foinavon (a bungalow at that time) as our home, some years ago primarily for it's location, it's outlook and ease of transport and travel. More recently we had the opportunity to invest in building a new home for ourselves; but, not wishing to lose our glorious views, we chose to build ourselves an independent apartment above Foinavon, which is where we now live.
Our guests now benefit from the spa, the large conservatory, stylish kitchen etc that we created originally for ourselves. We can't, of course, take the credit for that view!
Where else could you find these facilities, convenience, open outlook and, yet, privacy?
We really can't see ourselves moving from here; we'll continue to share our outlook with you, our guests.

What makes this property unique
Even after dark, Foinavon's views go on giving! Facing due east, with no development between us and the sea, we get some fantastic dark skies. You can watch the moon and stars rise over Culver Downs (and the Sunrise, if you want to be up that early).
There are so many countryside walks that you can start from Foinavon that it'd take you a week just to do the easiest ones. (and still have enough for your second week).
Do you want to walk to the sea? Barely over a mile. The full length of the Island to the Needles? About 25 miles, footpaths most of the way (there's a sponsored walk each spring).
A wide range of walks for everyone, all starting on your doorstep, level or energetic. In fact, if you're keen, you could be 400 feet up within a mile of your front door!
For drives out, you have quick and easy access to the whole of our beautiful Island,with few traffic hassles.
We've left you a range of maps and guides to give you some ideas.
We've also written some specially designed driving routes, starting from Foinavon, to help you see the best sights, avoiding the traffic and getting to know the Island better.
Do turn off that satnav over here, though - it will rarely take you the best way!
