18 acres of farmland with beautiful view of the Jinivick valley. We have 3 separate buildings on the property as follows: - Vivere Retreat (the modern Villa) can be rented out as either a 1 or 2 bedroom villa. - Pear Tree Cottage consisting of the 1 bed studio; and the cottage which can be rented out as a 1 or 2 bedroom apartment.

I live on the property with my family. I love walking and cycling and have a strong sense of community. I support the shop local philosophy.
