Hi, I'm Philip and I look forward to welcoming you to The Gatehouse. My partner Aimee and I live in the main house so we are nearby if you should need us. I have worked in the advertising business much of my life so have developed an appreciation for the arts and good design. I enjoy gardening and classic cars and boats.
