About the host
Hosted by Mrs Wendy Clements
Having grown up in Leicester, about as far away from the sea as it is possible to get, it was an absolute joy to move up to Scotland with my husband Colin, in 2002 and we haven't looked back. We started with a guest house, but when that started to get complicated after the arrival of twins, we moved into the self catering side of tourism. Colin is now a kitchen and bathroom fitter/joiner which is very handy for maintenance and I have an unpaid second job as child taxi service, keeping any spare time for walking the dogs on the beach and coastal rowing!
