A lovely home with tonnes of space in a calm, peaceful location. Kitchen fully appointed with everything you need, including dishwasher and washing machine. Garden games outside are a wonderful addition, especially if you have children. Snooker table inside kept my teens busy! Bedrooms clean, spacious, and very comfortable. Owners located in a separate house on the same site, and are very approachable.
