We own and run www.renaissanceshop.co.uk and we are incredibly lucky because we live in town but also work in an orchard growing apples, pears and plums. We're only a few miles from the sea so we get the very best of British Town, Country & Coastal Living. We have dogs and cats, horses, ferrets, chickens and quail, a tortoise, a parrot and a jackdaw called Sparrow who was rescued from the orchard with a broken wing. We have a lot of fun. We're passionate about the British countryside, wildlife, gardening, antiques, animals, books, art, design,vintage, home, food, living (and trading) in an ethical and environmentally sustainable way. You'll find lots more about us, including links to our other blogs by visiting www.renaissanceshop.co.uk
