Our Story
John and Nicki purchased Parsons Hall Farm in 2000, thrilled by its historic charm despite its dilapidated state. With their artistic vision, they imagined restoring the medieval farmstead and researching its history to support their planning applications. Despite challenges, including relocating John's cabinet-making business, they embarked on the immense restoration project with enthusiasm.
The Beginning…
Initially, John and Nicki’s focus was on obtaining approval to convert the old grain store into a cabinet-making workshop. Once granted, they meticulously planned the layout and installed the necessary infrastructure, such as, ducting, electrics, and concrete flooring. Despite the six-month endeavour and the stress of securing a bridging loan, the expansion provided John with a much-needed space to work, especially with the anticipation of welcoming another set of twins into their family.
Amidst these challenges, they found solace in walks to what is now Treeopia, where the natural surroundings and sensory experiences offered a respite from their worries. Immersed in the sights, sounds, and scents of the landscape, John and Nicki felt rejuvenated and ready to face the world. This transformative energy, which many of their guests also attest to, imbues Treeopia with a profound sense of spirituality and healing.
