What the Owner says:

This has been our family home since before I was born. It is a wonderful country house in an idyllic location and provides me with a raft of happy memories. Over the past few years we have been delighted to update parts of the house and provide excellent leisure facilities for all our family and friends, however we feel that it is time to start a new chapter in our lives and hope new owners will be able to enjoy everything this special home has to offer.
