Roy, as I am a second home owner are you sure you would want to avail yourself of my reduced mates rates hospitality?
What I don't understand about people moaning about second home owners is the fact that it is the local home owners who have sold their property at inflated prices in the first place. Then they moan that there is no affordable housing!!! I reckon it is a case of "I can't have it so nobody else should". Perhaps you should look closer to home and see how many properties certain local councilors own.
Quite a few years ago every summer a party of Orthodox Jews came to Dawlish and stayed at Ratcliffe School or Oakland Park School. Maybe this is where the Jewish Hostel was sited.
