Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Happy to exchange almost anywhere, surprise us with an offer.
We have made all our exchange arrangements for 2024 but happy to consider 2025

An 18th century farm building that was refurbished in the 1990’s to this beautiful cottage. Situated down a long private driveway, with outstanding views and the peace and quiet. A small court yard of cottages with delightful neighbours sets the scene.
We moved into the cottage in March 2019 and have totally refurbished in keeping with it’s age, yet with all the modern conveniences. A brand new kitchen/diner has been installed which is a great entertaining space. A good size conservatory is on the end of the house looking out onto beautiful views, we see daily the deer grazing, plenty of birds, rabbits and the occasional fox.
