Beautiful High Bickington House
Little Knowle Farm and Country Ways Holiday Cottages are in High Bickington. They’re on at £1.4M.
They look perfect almost for my business idea that would see me living and working in Devon.
Little Knowle Farm and Country Ways Holiday Cottages is a well established small country estate comprising a spacious 5 bedroom detached character farmhouse with 6 holiday cottages, the old Corn Barn providing a venue for weddings, which also doubles as a gym / fitness area, gardens and marquee lawn adjoining, some 5000 sq ft of craft workshops, general purpose building (110′ x 40′ approx) providing stabling etc, together with approximately 42 acres of permanent pasture and established ancient woodland with river frontage.
Looks and sounds idylic. Perhaps a little further from the coast than I’d really like but still reasonably close.
It also lacks a swimming pool but there is plenty of space in the 42 acres of land!
