In the sellers` words ?

`Lady House has been our wonderful family home for twenty-one years and we have many happy memories here. It`s a house for all seasons. Cosy and warm by the fire in winter, cool and inviting in summer with a gentle breeze blowing in through open doors and windows. A glorious garden to relax in and watch the butterflies and birds with beautiful rural views all around. `
