Property information from this agent

Places of interest

    A love of horses and the countryside, an enthusiasm for everything property and an astute recognition of a gap in the market place for a niche Country and Equestrian property specialist led to the launch of Equus in the Nineties and the Equus name becoming the recognised brand trademark of the country and equestrian property sector.
