Rich and Claire first crossed paths as teenagers at school in Halifax, forging a friendship that would eventually blossom into something much more. Life took them on separate journeys, but both found their way to the stunning coastal town of Exmouth - Rich in 2007, and Claire in 2016. A year later, they tied the knot, with a shared appreciation for the sea, sunshine, and slower pace of life.
In 2025, they launched their holiday rental venture with one simple goal: to share the joy and beauty of Exmouth with others. Whether it's the golden beaches, the vibrant local culture, or the peaceful estuary views, Rich and Claire are passionate about helping guests experience the magic that made them fall in love with this place.
