“Peter and our 2 children and I have been coming to Braunton for the last 22 years, and moved here permanently last June. Having been coming to the area for so many years it is really important to us to preserve the beautiful sandy beaches and coastline. We feel we have a common interest with the local community and share their passion to help preserve the environment for future generations, therefore we wanted to establish our new business using the same principles. We have made some initial steps to recycle and lessen the use of plastics and will continue to make further improvements as our business grows”
