What the owners say - ‘We are reluctantly moving to be nearer family but will very much miss the unique peace and security of our home here. It is a lovely quiet location with a good community spirit. There are various communal activities throughout the year to which everyone is welcome, but not obliged, to attend.
The fields either side of the drive are owned by some of the residents and so can never be built upon and the sheep are quite friendly. There are two pubs close by and an excellent restaurant at the nearby golf club, all within walking distance. The farm in the village is an excellent place to buy free range eggs and various vegetables but be careful not to run over the hens!’
