    Description

    Hello myself and my partner Dan live in the beautiful Somerset countryside in a six bedroom property with our 3 Shetland Sheepdogs and a small flock of free range chickens. Dan and are professionals and our busy work takes us away from home on a regular basis and often overseas for periods. The property is in a remote part of Somerset surrounded by fields, and woods perfect for someone who drives and likes the peace and quiet of the countryside. There is access to amenities a short drive away.
