Meet the trainer behind the course
Hello! I'm Karen Thorne
EXPERIENCED BED AND BREAKFAST OWNER AND TRAINER, DOG LOVER, MUM TO 1, AVID KNITTER, BIRD WATCHER
I'm the founder and owner of Bed and Breakfast Academy. I'm an experienced B&B owner, trainer, head cheerleader at the Yellow Duck Collection, dog wrangler, avid knitter, proud mother of Jess and wife to Rob - the one with the beard.
I worked for British Airways for 16 years, where I was an IT manager, trainer, coach and facilitator.
When we decided to escape the rat race, move to the countryside and set up my own B&B in Shropshire in 2004, there was very little support or information available for anyone starting a B&B. And I made an awful lot of expensive mistakes along the way.
I decided to combine my training skills with what I'd learned about running a B&B ( the hard way ... ouch ) to create a training course to help aspiring B&B owners like you create your best B&B life and to make sure you don't make the same expensive mistakes I'd made!
And Bed and Breakfast Academy was born in 2006.
It lovely to meet you!
