The gate remote is returned to the key box as you depart at the end of your stay Other things to note The Signal Box is a perfect place to get away from it all to relax and recharge - it's set completely privately on it's own you'll be able to unwind and find peace and relaxation aplenty here. Artists, photographers, writers, walkers, birdwatchers, stargazers (on a clear night the stars are amazing here), nature lovers or those simply seeking some tranquility in a stunning location would find this property particularly appealing. Being located next to a working farm means that on occasion, noise from agricultural machinery and livestock is to be expected. In the Spring/Summer and Autumn livestock usually roam in the adjoining stock proof fenced farm fields - it's usually a large and particularly stunning herd of cows with their new born calves or ewes with their newborn lambs. Please note that all the adjoining gardens, farm fields and the paddocks where the four sheep reside are strictly private as are our private gardens where our pet chickens, dogs and cats may be roaming.
