It really is amazing what properties like that fetch in your part of the world Graeme....and if it has equestrian bits then it really puts the price up!

A lovely part of the country....But I'm definitely a fan of the West Country now  :) :) :) :) :) :)

I love the west country too and thats what is frightening me (in a good way) that when i come down in July, the temptation will be too much and i will end up like the Cadburys cream egg advert with the mouse traps, just bouncing around everywhere!!  ;D ;D :wave: :farmer:

We did the same as doganjo - although we lived in Perthshire - we sold up and rented (3 dogs/3 cats/2 birds of prey - chickens to the mother-in-laws) then looked at everthing we could afford from Perth (not really anything) to Aberdeenshire and ended up here - it ticked more boxes than anywhere else. Good luck with your hunting - must admit I love looking at property so the hunt was good fun
