Agents Note
We feel that this property is in an idyllic country lane location with some beautiful views over open countryside, especially stunning at sunrise & sunset, but in the interests of transparency we would like to mention that there are caravan sites located close by, which we understand are closed for a number of months during the year but are open during the summer time. We nevertheless urge you to go and see this beautiful cottage for yourself - you won't be disappointed.
