OWNERS INSIGHT

"My wife moved from Northamptonshire in 2021 and bought Shorton Suite so that she could wake up every day and see the diamonds dancing on the sea. I joined her in December 2023 and together we have made the property our home. Enjoying warm summer evenings relaxing on the upper patio and snuggled up in front of the log burner on the cooler winter nights, watching the flames dance and swirl behind the glass. We now have an opportunity to follow our dreams of living abroad in a warm climate, and continuing to watch the diamonds dance on a different sea. We’re sure that the new homeowner will be just as happy here as we have been."
