Ralph Bellamy purchased this house in 1970. He and wife Lilian lived there until they moved to Guernsey in 1975, after which it was let to a variety of tenants including Arnold Lucas.

In 1990 Lilian sold the house as part of the Berrow Estate to Cameron Fraser, who in turn sold it to Guy Pemberton in 1992. Guy had to spend a lot of money to restore the house to its former glory.

Guy’s wife Caroline inherited the house on her husband’s death and lived there until she moved to Grange Farm to live with Oliver Stirling in 2003.

In 1999 Caroline converted part of the house into a self contained flat for her godson William Grundy following his family's eviction from Grange Farm, who resided there until his marriage to Emma Carter in 2004.

After a succession of short term lets, the house was bought by Matt Crawford in 2006 so that his amour Lilian could return the home in which she had previously been so happy.
