Michele and Tobin's Summerhouse
Simon and his team create a unique B&B in Devon that also plans to take four-legged guests. Michele and Tobin hope that their tired summerhouse and stables can offer lodgings for people and animals.
Simon and his team are in Devon to help create a unique B&B that鈥檚 not just for people. After finally achieving their dream of buying a small holding and stables, Michele and Tobin realised that the tired summerhouse on the property could offer lodgings for people, whilst the stables meant they could also bring their horses 鈥� or even alpacas.
But turning a very ordinary garden summerhouse into something more appealing to the horsey set provides a big challenge to Simon and his team.
A visit to the rustic Scollas Lodge in the Tamar Valley shows Michele and Tobin just how a hand-built wooden cabin can appeal to the B&B customer and convinces them that waney edge timber is the way to go with their summerhouse.
Top carpenter Ian Tsang is tasked with creating a bed that can be raised or lowered to make the most of the tiny space, designers Zoe Hewitt and Sophie Dunn help Michele to realise her American prairie dream for the interior, and Tobin comes up with a novel use for all the leftover horseshoes from the stables.
