Real homes: a 50s hilltop bungalow surrounded by deer



Having been born and raised in the city, I often think I could never live in the country. 

But when, late last year, we went to stay at the house of some of my boyfriend's oldest friends in the Wye Valley, I was almost swayed. In our bit of London, we often hear drug deals being done outside our windows. There, as we discovered when we stayed, the noises outside are usually inquisitive deer.
