THE BUILD

OUR STORY

Our Story

Welcome to our renovation adventure!  My name is Becky, I’m a wife, mother of energetic twins, creative business owner and part-time HR Manager.  We live in North Bristol and back in December 2017 we moved in to our 1960s fixer upper, Little Ravenswell.  We recognised it had tons of potential and our goal was to maximise this by creating a light, open family home.

The website was initially set up to track the build progress, from planning permission being granted in early May 2018, the builders starting work in January 2019 to elements of the interior decor progressing during 2019.   Since then we’ve been hard at work finishing rooms and turning our attention to the garden.

The house is now listed on AirBnB and is available as a location house, indeed we had our first campaign for a well known pharmacy chain happen at the start of 2022.  The website has naturally evolved with us and you’ll find it covers travel, business and day to day life too.

If you’ve enjoyed the blogs you’ve found here, why not follow me on instagram and see everyday life in my instastories.
