Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This home is situated in the rural English countryside, and you'll love the view of the accompanying fields with a paddock and stables on-site. Although horse riding isn't allowed, you can still pet the horses and there's a riding school just a short 2km away. The home consists of a main house and a converted barn, so it’s perfect for a large group or family wanting to sprawl out and enjoy the country air. There are plenty of outdoor areas here, and you'll also find some quaint local pubs in the nearby village less than 2km away, while the nearest shops are 7km from the home.
