The granite built farmhouse was renovated to an extremely high standard in 2008 using traditional methods and local builders. The house stands in 3300 m2 of lawned garden surrounded by fields used by the local farmer for crops. The house is within a hamlet of 6 other buildings, 3 of which are owned as holiday homes and not rented commercially. The hamlet is extremely quiet and safe for children. The surrounding countryside can be explored easily on foot or bicycle. The house is open plan downstairs with a very large working open fire, limestone flooring throughout, original oak beams, modern and well appointed kitchen and large dining area, table seating 12 to 14 under a large atrium. Four terraces surround the house. Ample parking is available next to the house and in the adjoining open barn.
