The Dartmoor National Park is just a short drive away and offers great opportunities for those who enjoy walking, riding and other outdoor pursuits.

The land is a rural oasis in the the middle of the built up city of Plymouth.

The land would equally be suited for the grazing of perhaps a retired horse or donkey or other pets. (The current owners have enjoyed keeping donkeys and 2 very friendly pigs!)

Given the convenient location for many it would also suit somebody with an in interest in wildlife or somebody who also wants to grow their own vegetables (Goodlife Style)., Given the excellent fencing and privacy, it could also be used for a safe area for ones children or dogs to play, , or just a pleasant private area to picnic beside the stream that might turn out to be a good long term investment., perhaps with long term potential.
