Credits and Thanks
Ric & Maggie have at last fulfilled their dream of providing somewhere very special and unique for people to stay and have spent many months renovating and refurbishing the very extraordinary Enchanted Manor.
When Ric met Maggie eight years ago he owned a Mussel farm which he had pioneered some years earlier in Western Australia. Maggie owned a unique romantic hotel on the Isle of Wight which they both managed when Ric first came to England. Ric and Maggie then bought and renovated a Victorian restaurant which became world famous when they place a thatched Kangaroo finial on the roof , which has since become a tourist attraction.
They then built the first five star Bed and Breakfast on the Isle of Wight, which the really enjoyed running together. This inspired them to buy the Manor so they can continue doing something they love and welcoming new guests and friends.
Now they are looking for someone likeminded to buy Koala Cottage and run it in conjunction with the Enchanted Manor.
We would like to say a special thanks to everyone involved in our amazing transformation including.
