The Houghtons of Hawley


Houghton Family 
Hawley Estate has been the cherished family home of the Houghtons since 1948 - three generations.  The property was opened to visitors in 1988 by Simon and is fortunate to have the total commitment of generation three, Sophie, Marc, Melissa (& Ratty) Houghton, who bring skills they have developed specifically for the benefit of the property.

Ratty

(pictured here with Brock) has lived at Hawley since he was 4 weeks of age and spends his time looking after himself. Unlike the other key people in the organisation he doesn't hide behind a dog.
