“A quiet location and a beautiful house to relax and recharge the batteries.”
A really comfortable house with beautiful gardens, two ponds (securely fenced) and a family of ducks. So much in the garden to occupy the children, as well as gathering sticks from the woods for the firepit. Different areas with tables and chairs, so always a sunny spot in the garden to enjoy cofee. Be prepared for steep stairs and reduced head height, and remember to duck through the doorways! A very lovely old house.
