Historically, the house is thought to have been of notable status, associated with the neighbouring farmstead, with land once owned and cultivated by the monks of nearby Bury St Edmunds Abbey.

Set in rolling moorland, it’s given us space to grow our own food, raise pigs and poultry, and savour simple pleasures like family picnics in the orchard. Our favourite ritual? A cup of tea on the meadow bench, watching the sun rise over the North Pennines - a view that never fails to inspire.The gardens have been a constant source of joy, bursting with spring bulbs, framed by far-reaching views, and illuminated by clear, starry skies. Over the years we’ve lovingly improved the property with bespoke kitchens, cosy redecoration, underfloor heating, and practical touches like stock fencing, animal housing, and a rabbit-proof vegetable garden, all of which have made life easier and supported our thriving holiday cottage business.Life here feels wonderfully peaceful, yet the village is exceptionally well served.
