Owners Interview

We bought this property back in 2006 and immediately fell in love with the peace and tranquillity it offers. With our daughters having horses at the time, the 2.1 acres and existing stables were a real bonus and made it even more special for us.

We knew as soon as we walked through the door that this was ‘the one’. Being part of a village community, yet still enjoying a sense of seclusion, has always been something we truly valued about living here.
