About the Book
In 2003 Jo Bowen and Matthew Bernstein bought Helwell Barton in Devon and began a major restoration program of this old dairy farmhouse and surrounds. This is a picturial record of the outcome, a place where people, flora and fauna and the landscape come together in celebration of a wonderful place to be.
