“The Brambles was architecturally designed for our family and built by a local builder as a distinctive property in the early 1970's. We appreciated the family home for over 50 years which is now ready to be enjoyed by the next family. We loved the garden eating the different apples and soft fruits in the summer, having BBQ’s and enjoying the diverse wildlife. The beautiful Loose village and valley is a short walk away.”
