There are two lanes that lead up to this property, one leads up a pretty steep hill if you’re walking and the other is a little more bumpy and undulating but essentially without the steep hill. When we first drove to view the house, we soon realised we hadn’t taken the topography into account. I … More The Tree Line

The weather has been mixed today after the spell of great, sunny days but it was expected and it’s not raining ….. yet. That said, we could do with some rain, maybe a downpour from midnight to 05:00?
