Will a young family in search of a fresh start be tempted by the Norfolk coast?

Fabio and Isobel Avemaria think living by the sea is just what their young family needs after health scares and redundancy, but is now the right time to make a move to Norfolk?

When Fabio and Isobel Avemaria met, they knew they had found someone they could travel the world with, having adventures. Two years ago, they welcomed daughter Alice into the family and have realised how important their family network is. The couple suffered some major setbacks, but Fabio’s cancer treatment is coming to an end, and Isobel has vowed to make the best of her sudden redundancy. They are ready to get back to living life and hope that Norfolk will be the place for them. But will the young family be able to imagine a life away from friends and family?
