What makes this property unique
Approached via a half mile winding country driveway and etched upon a sylvan backdrop with buzzards wheeling overhead. This old stable once served the local silver and copper mines but has undergone a sensitive restoration to offer luxury self-catering escapes for couples and families. It’s dog friendly too.
