Stacey Solomon Quits Pickle Cottage After 5 Years

Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash have revealed they are moving away from their beloved home, Pickle Cottage, after residing there for five years. The announcement came as a surprise to fans on Wednesday evening. Solomon later clarified that Joe's fishing lake, a separate passion project, is not located at Pickle Cottage and will continue to be developed by him.

The couple is preparing for an imminent relocation with their extensive family, which includes Rex, Rose, Belle, Zachary, Leighton, and Harry. Solomon expressed that leaving the property was a decision she never anticipated making, as they initially believed they would stay indefinitely.

The Tudor-style property, which they bought for £1.2 million, has been a significant place for the couple. It served as the venue for their intimate wedding ceremony in July 2022 and is where two of Solomon's daughters were born. She has also dedicated considerable effort to DIY projects on the estate.

Looking ahead, the couple hinted at their next destination, expressing a desire to "move further out" and acquire "a bit more land." They are excited about the prospect of a large vegetable patch, keeping horses on-site, and potentially rescuing animals. The new location is described as "somewhere really really different, and it does need a lot of love."
