Omaze winner Catherine Carwardine two years on from her £3m win in the Lake District

Transcript

00:00You won the house!

00:02I still can't believe it's been two years since we've won this house.

00:05Some days when we come up here, we still pinch ourselves to actually believe that it belongs to us.

00:14As soon as we walked in the front door, it felt like a home.

00:17We knew that we were going to keep the house. Selling wasn't an option.

00:21This place is amazing, but at Christmas it really comes into its own.

00:26You get the log fire going and you've got the Christmas tree lights. What more can you ask for?

00:31There's so much to love about this house.

00:34I love coming down and sitting at the dining room table and just looking out over the lake.

00:38Look at that. A brew with a view. Lovely.

00:42Lake Windermere is just like a picture postcard.

00:45We're still not bored with the views.

00:48Water's looking good today. We could maybe try some wild swimming or maybe not.

00:53We enjoyed the house ourselves with friends for a few months, but then we decided that we'd actually rent it out.

00:59It gives people a great opportunity to stay in Anna May's house and quite a few people have booked it because of that.

01:06At least if they couldn't win it, they can actually get to stop here.

01:10I've been working for the NHS for 40 years. I've no plans to retire just yet.

01:14I do love my job, but the money from renting it out has taken all the financial pressure off us.

01:19We'll never have to worry about money ever again.

01:22We've been fostering for seven years now and we still have foster children who will be lucky enough to enjoy this place.

01:29To the people who win the next Anna May's house, it will be the best Christmas they ever have.

01:34We won Anna May's house in the Lake District. Maybe this year you can too.

01:39Get out there and buy your tickets now.
