Our vendor says... Very fond memories made from the large family gatherings spilling out in to the wonderful grounds lasting into the long summer evenings and those others in the cosy stonewalled and roaring logfire warmth during the long dark winter evenings for birthdays, anniversaries and seasonal gatherings, Contrasted with relaxing blissful quiet times surrounded by flora in bloom and a vast array of wildlife sharing the beautiful gardens whilst absorbing the panoramic views of Blagdon Lake and hearing the quintessential English sound of ball on willow coming up the valley.

We have noticed... A superb opportunity to purchase a home set in beautiful grounds with lake views. A viewing must be booked to take advantage of the situation and views.
