Owners Comments:

“We moved here 3 years ago as COVID ended after having spent lockdown in a flat in town. It was a spontaneous decision, but one of the best we have made. We have been surprised by the location, being in walking distance to the beautiful countryside where we like to walk our dog. This is something we didn't expect. The property lends itself to socialising, especially in the summer with the multiple seating areas and sun throughout the day. We have enjoyed countless parties and BBQs with our friends and family We have been lucky to live here but it's now time for us to move on. We will be sad to leave some lovely neighbours and the location. We hope the house makes more memories for the new owners.”
