Vendor Comment
“The location is a well-kept secret and peaceful oasis, free of light and sound pollution and encroachment from developers (which is very rare these days), where you wake in the morning to nothing but bird song, surrounded by miles of beautiful and diverse country walks right from your gate and go to bed hearing the owls and seeing the moon and (shooting) stars shining brightly. It will be near impossible to replicate this haven which I have been very privileged to enjoy for the last 27 years. If I could lift Stable Cottage up and take her with me, I would in a heartbeat
