The property is approached via an electric gated entrance with a large driveway and parking area. Offering generous accommodation and extensive outdoor space, it is well suited to tenants looking for a semi-rural lifestyle while still having convenient access to local towns, schools, and commuter routes.
The ground floor includes an entrance porch, lounge, dining room snug/study, and a well-equipped breakfast kitchen with built-in appliances. The office / snug can also be used as a sixth bedroom, if required. There is a substantial snooker room with a snooker table provided for tenant use (not replaced if damaged), together with a ground-floor WC. A cellar is also present, but not included for use in the rental.

Externally, the property sits within approximately 11 acres, including gardens, patios, and pasture-land. The electric gates lead to a large parking area suitable for several vehicles. Stables and a tack room are on site but currently used for storage by the owners, and are excluded from the rental unless tenants wish to repair, and use them at their own cost. If tenants do not wish to make use of the pasture land, the surrounding fields will be maintained and used for haylage by a local farmer, under a separate verbal agreement with the landlord.

The holding deposit may be retained for the following reasons:
* False or misleading information is provided
* Applicant withdraws from the property
* Right to Rent checks are unsuccessful -
* Reasonable steps to finalise the tenancy are not taken within 15 days (an extension of up to 30 days may be granted with the landlords consent in writing). Failure to meet any of these conditions will result in the forfeit of the holding deposit. To calculate, multiply the monthly rent by 12, then divide by 52, and round down to the nearest pound.

Please note that in any property where the Landlord agrees you can keep a pet at the property, the rent will be 7% higher than advertised.
