If you’re after peace and tranquility then this is the spot for you. Surrounded by farmers fields and beautiful views. Lovely property; clean and well equipped with everything that you might need. Hot tub was very well maintained (daily) and the perfect way to end a busy day. It’s absolutely perfect if you are taking a dog, with an enclosed garden and lots of local walks.
