The successful purchaser may choose to let out a number of the properties to generate some useful income from either holiday let or permanent rental use.

Buckland - Buckland is a very spacious single story 3 bedroom property which extends to over 1,400 sq ft.

This property extends to over 2,000 sq ft and offers an incredible amount of space and a unique design over two storeys. The barn has two sets of stairs providing access to various parts of the house.
