Additional local services and amenities including shops, butchers, takeaway food outlets etc are available in the nearby villages of Marden and Sutton St Nicholas.

The property itself comprises a beautifully appointed three bedroom border oak property with annexed accommodation offering a further bedroom and self contained accommodation.
The four self catering two bedroom cottages are luxuriously appointed and offer a thriving self catering business with figures available upon request and in confidence.
The level pasture land leads down to the River Lugg with a lovely natural pebbled beach and a beautiful environment for guests to enjoy a quiet evening drink.
