While it won't be an easy choice, I can see you aren't ready for it anyway. I say to enjoy life as it is, but, like you are doing, explore your options. I think the choices are more difficult when you have so many.
I have found throughout my own life when it comes to decisions like this, I have been blessed with the situation presenting a clear choice in its own time. (not my own) Something will tell you it's time and you will know it is the right choice.
Swapping cottages is a great option too.
It is nice to have so many! ❤️
I totally agree with you Denise, that's exactly how we both feel.
We're still enjoying running the bnb, it's just that it can get hectic at times as there are days when our staff work elsewhere.
However, I do believe the opportunity will come at the right time, so for now we'll enjoy our little haven.
It would be ideal having a summer and a winter home, but that's beyond our reach.
Thank you for the sound advice, it's always lovely seeing you🌻🌻🌻
