Take a trip to one of the many local towns for a farmers’ market or to browse the independent shops.

This is a lovely property and our family - eight adults - had a great time. The weather wasn't the best but we still enjoyed the beautiful garden with games of volley ball, croquet and badminton. The huge dining table was perfect for board games. And my sons' obsession with hot tubs was satisfied by a big comfortable tub.

Very nice well equipped property in a countryside location with good outlook. Suitably situated for quiet walks out but near enough to making driving to popular attractions practical. We had a nightly visit from a Barn owl and its' fledgling to one of the large garden trees. Very charming
