OWNER OPINION
The house is quiet and tranquil, a great place to escape the turmoils of a busy life. The size of the rooms give a great feeling of space, unusual in this type of property. We very much enjoy the freedom to walk the local footpaths with our dogs. The wildlife is abundant and provides hours of pleasure. The farmyard is kept clean and tidy and there is not much activity on the yard for the majority of the year, but what does go on serves to stop the house feeling isolated.
