I have found that this home is a living piece of history. It has been a great family home enjoyed by many friends and children. There's always things to do and nature to watch. The bird life is amazing and we have been lucky to watch the Kingfisher fly through or stopping to fish. There are lots of ducks and if lucky in Spring you can watch the ducklings progress. The field has been grazed by sheep until the 6 donkeys took possession. It is a house in a very special position, part of 'The Valley of Dreams' as described by Donald Maxwell.
