Because it really is 'practically perfect in every way'. We've loved living here and if we could take her with us when we relocate, we would! This has been a labour of love for us and it's been a joy to live in a house so full of character. Getting to bake bread in the range cooker, make jams from locally foraged fruits, watching buzzards ride the thermals above the house, growing our own veggies and getting to sit by the fire on a cold winters' evening with a cup of hot chocolate make this cottage feel like a holiday home - that we get to live in every day."
