Barb has a long history of working with people sometimes in difficult circumstances, loves to chat, is a lover of history, beautiful things, art, books, gardens and quiet relaxed social eating experiences. I have also been a hard worker and running Burnbank is not for the faint hearted being a historial building, timber, lathen plaster and definitely not the laminate style it requires endless amounts of cleaning and gardening. At Burnbank we accept animals and we have a Golden Retriever very old, and a Rag Doll Cat also getting along in age. I am very happy in my work at Burnbank, love the nice people who come to stay and make many friends, and especially persons who appreciate the finer things in life, ambience, the beauty of the outdoors, quiet times indoors and an environment that is separate from the stressors of high density living.
