In 1973 Jeremy Thompson moved from Yorkshire with his wife and three very young children. Their destination was Seagulls House in the heart of Salcombe, directly on the foreshore...
At the time it was of little consequence to Jeremy that the house he had bought came attached with Couzins Bakery. He had no intention to bake, nor any idea how to! His dream was to make a living fishing! However, the fish were scarce and money scarcer so with three hungry children to feed his wife convinced him to "have a go" at making a loaf of bread.
