Welcome to Cottage & Camper! We’ve just taken on our biggest challenge yet: rescuing a crumbling, 200-year-old cottage in a protected Conservation Area in Hampshire, UK.
From major flooding issues and structural decay to the rules of a Hampshire conservation area, absolutely everything needs doing. This isn’t just a DIY project—it’s a total restoration of a piece of English history.
Our Journey So Far:
After our dream of moving to France was scuppered by the pandemic and Brexit, we didn't give up on adventure.
Join us as we navigate the highs and lows of a UK cottage renovation, uncovering hidden history (and a lot of damp) along the way.
Subscribe to follow the transformation! 🏠🔨🌳
Support our renovation (Buy us a wee drinkie!): ☕🍾🍻

What a wonderful bank holiday weekend we've had! Lacock, Castle Combe, Bradford on Avon and Avebury! I've fallen in love with another area so very close to home ❤️ Happy twenty years to us. The vlog will be out later tonight, and we have another decision to make, so please come and help us!

Wow! We are having a lovely weekend exploring Wiltshire, in honour of twenty years of knowing one another 💖 Yesterday we spent the day and night in Lacock, a filming location for many period dramas and the Harry Potter films, and wandered the cloisters of the Abbey, where Talbot lived, and invented the photograph! Today we've enjoyed rubbing shoulders with hundreds of tourists in the stunning Castle Combe, and now we're headed home via Avebury.
Our weekly vlog will be a Bank Holiday Monday special, rather than our usual Sunday evening offering, as I'm not at home to edit! Thanks for your understanding 💖💖💖
Last shot is us from twenty years ago!

So sorry we haven't got our usual video going out tonight - we've been away working and playing for the last few days. I've nearly finished editing and I'll be getting it out, all being well, tomorrow! 😄
