  • Description

    Description

    We are a family of 5, Andy (Australian)(architect) and Maddy (Norwegian)(art consultant) and the 3 kids a mix of both. They are 9,13 and 16 and don't require any looking after. Oh we also have a dog, Thomas. We bought a beautiful large Villa 4 years ago and have renovated a large part of it and still have work to do on it with some work needed on the Barn to create and art studio.
    We spend a great deal of the time at the beach and are keen surfers and generally any enjoy anything outdoors and active.
