About Us

I am Sarah, married to Jimmy since 2002. We have three children - Ellie is 16, Harry is 13 and Oscar is 8.

We live in a lovely village near Stowmarket in Suffolk, on our 1.5 acre smallholding. We have dabbled in pig breeding, had 2 lambs from our sheep 2 years ago, we keep bees and did keep chickens and ducks until a nasty fox attack a couple of years ago.

I have 5 wonderful cockapoos - Max (8), Polly (6), Sookie (3), Lola (2) and Willow (10 months)

​A couple of years ago we also tried our hands at raising turkey for the table, and our Christmas dinner was delicious!

Jim likes to grow fruit and veg, although he is having a break from it, it's wonderful to have so much space to fit everything in! 

Above is a photo of Max looking down our garden to the old chicken house on his left and the stable where our pigs were kept. When we moved here in Dec 2012, none of the land was visible, it was all covered in brambles! Jim has worked very hard over the last couple of years, and my once computer nerdish, slightly geeky husband has changed into a farmer!
To give me something to do whilst I don't have puppies, and because my rep has moved on, I have become a Darceys representative. I've always loved candles, melts, diffusers etc, so it's rather fun and I love having a beautifully scented house (no doggy smells here!)! I have a Facebook page and group, so please do have a look if you are interested. I can deliver locally or post your order to you if required.

​Since I started this website, we have added a different dog breed to the family. Jim has always wanted a bigger dog, and has found his ideal breed in the Komondor. They are a large Hungarian working breed, bred for guarding sheep from wolf attacks. They are fiercely loyal, protective and loving, but they have a lazy side too! My usually shy husband is in his element when talking about his dogs and likes popping into town or to country shows with Buddy (who loves the attention!) to show off and answer the many questions he receives!

Buddy is the eldest (3 last September) & Angyal is now 2 and still puppy brained.. Jim has been trying his hand at showing Buddy, and they were very excited to have won their class at Crufts last year! 2019 Crufts was fun, but Buddy was tired and didn't want to walk round the ring. Maybe they will have more success next year.

You will notice Trixie in photos below, and around my website. We very sadly lost her in February 2019, at just 3 years of age. We are still absolutely devastated and she has left a massive hole in our hearts.

Rest in Peace, Trixie - 18th July 2015 - 21st February 2019

Jim joined the committee for The Komondor Club of GB and he is also the Website Editor and since 2019 is the Club Secretary. I am also now on the Committee!

Jim is hoping to have his first komondor litter in 2019. Please see www.lyntonkomondors.com for more information.
