INTRODUCTION: "Having put so much time and effort into restoring Roydan house we will really miss it when we move. It has been a great home that we have become really quite attached to. The solid construction, the high ceilings and quality detailing which only comes with a period property are things we have really come to appreciate and love."
"We have felt very lucky to have lived here, it's a great location for a family with excellent schools nearby and having the beach on our doorstep has been fantastic! The panoramic views over the town and the bay are particularly special at night time with twinkling lights on the houses and ships moored in the bay. You get a real sense of seaside living being at Roydan House" says Christine.
When the sun is shining we love nothing more than morning coffee or afternoon tea on the terrace, it's a real pleasure as we face a southerly direction so when it is sunny we have it all day long!"
"The ease of a few minutes walk into town giving access to shops, bars, restaurants, main line rail station and the beach has been a real benefit too" says Nigel. "We can go for days without using the car which is great!"
"When we chose Roydan House to buy we fell for the location, having Haldon Forest and its beautiful scenic walks on the one hand and the soft sandy beach on the other was just ideal! The bedroom accommodation was an equal benefit being split over two floors it gives the opportunity for parents and children to enjoy their own space which was a real bonus for us!" says Christine.*
