… ¼ mile from Blisland, in a lovely situation, a charming, sunny single-storey cottage and, 50 yards from it, an extremely good single-storey house. They are up 300 yards of private tree-lined, primrose-banked lane, separated by the well-kept lawn-garden of the owners’ beautiful 16th cent. farmhouse of a 65 acre mixed farm (sheep, cows/calves, horses). You are welcome on the farm. Behind rises a tor (fine views). Foxes, badgers and buzzards about. A grand place for walkers, birdwatchers or peace-seekers - very close to the open moor (nearby gate to it) but in soft, wooded countryside.

... Higher Tumrose, the single-storey house, is detached, well designed and full of character: big rooms, comfortable furniture (including antiques), good pictures and superb long views. Low, shallow steps down to own terrace/patio (table/chairs), good-sized lawn divided from fields by ha-ha; all very secluded. Inside: hall; elegant living room with woodburner (logs included), TV/DVD, French windows to balcony (superb views), and glazed double doors to big, comfortable, parquet-floored sun room with tremendous views. Depth-of-house, well-equipped fitted kitchen/dining room (dishwasher, washing machine, tumble drier, microwave, fridge-freezer); dining table overlooking the terrace and garden. Four bedrooms – the large, light, master double (5' wide x 6'7" long bed, TV) with another wonderful - and in bed - view via big bay window (window seat), and en suite bathroom (suite, shower over bath); two twin (one with beds zip-linked to make 6' double); and a single (2'6" bed); bathroom (suite with separate shower).
