A mum from Cornwall being evicted from her rented home has been told her and her kids could be forced to move to Wales - and that she could see it as “a holiday.” Mum-of-three, Rae Layton has rented her Ponsanooth home for around 15 years, but was handed a Section 21 eviction notice last week - and has now been told she might have to move 240 miles away.
Mrs Layton, under the notice, has until the middle of July to find a new place to live. However, as with many others, this has proven effectively impossible with the high prices and extraordinary demand for rented houses, reports Cornwall Live.
She said her landlady served the notice last Friday (April 22), and “would not be surprised” if it ended up as an Airbnb or sold on for a premium. “I don’t blame her,” Mrs Layton said, “It’s worth £100,000 than it would have been a year or two ago.
