In a 2023 Netflix documentary titled Beckham, the football star explained the reason behind buying his home in the serene location. He said, “I wanted a place where we could escape.

Moss also divulged “a secret place, in the middle of lots of fields and only the villagers are allowed to use it” which she visits to enjoy “wild swimming”.
