We looked at a lot of houses before moving our consultancy business to Devon and fell in love with one in the Doone Valley. With today’s technology, it’s possible to work almost anywhere as a consultant, meaning Devon is no longer just a beautiful holiday destination, but a real option for relocating. I believe our location can be a great advantage, and we’ll start to bring teams of people from London to Devon to do effective work in a stress-free environment.
The move has been great for us: we still work with major clients all over the UK and Europe, but get to come home and fish from our back door, or walk up the hill and be on Exmoor. We love walking and have now taken up surfing and golfing too.
The locals have made us feel really welcome and our friends and family make more of an effort to come and see us, so everyone wins!
