Warm Message from the vendors
The previous owners had told us, “It is special here,”  something we’ve believed ever since! It feels like home in every sense. 
It has been a magical place to raise our family, stunning winters by the fire— hazy summers in the garden—not forgetting trips over the field to the pub! We’ve found a wonderful community within area, the Paddock wellness, coffee at the post office, events at Wainsgate. It has always been ‘good to be home’ and a true joy to have had time here.
