Vendors interview

“I have lived at Keepers Cottage for forty-one years and I absolutely love it. From when I look out of the bedroom window at a beautiful sunrise, if the weather is decent, to the afternoon sun shining on the Castle.

Quite often I spot Roe Deer in the field beyond my house.

The Conservatory is a lovely bright room incredibly quiet almost church like. Lovely for New Years eve parties.

The living room has a modern log burner which throws out a lot of heat in the winter. Whilst in the kitchen the oil-fired Aga keeps the kitchen wonderfully warm in the winter all day and night.

The Orchard/front garden is a bird watchers paradise with Greater Spotted Woodpecker, Treecreeper plus many more visiting the bird feeders regularly.”
