About the host
Hosted by Denise
Jill and Jim bought the section that the bach is now on back in 1970, and for many years, took their family there to stay in a caravan, where Michael and Denise (the kids!) grew up playing with the neighbours' kids. Michael and Denise's kids have now grown up with the same neighbours' grandchilren, so it is quite a community with many memories. Jill and Jim are now retired and renting the bach out to help pay the bills.
