The house was skilfully converted from a former historic wayside inn, along with the two adjoining properties, some years ago and now offers well planned and well appointed accommodation which must be viewed internally to be appreciated. A particular feature is the superb 'heart of the house' style fitted dining kitchen and the most useful boot room/utility room - ideal for boots, saddles, riding equipment etc. There is a splendid stable block and a delightful courtyard style garden, together with a double width block paved parking bay, the garden enjoying a lovely open aspect across the paddocks.

PROPERTIES IN A RURAL LOCATION, YET CONVENIENT FOR ROAD LINKS AND ALL AMENITIES, WITH GRAZING LAND AND STABLING IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT, ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN - INSPECTION HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
