SOLD – WESTCOUNTRY HOMES CHANGING HANDS THIS WEEK

A local family has found the quintessential cottage in Broad Park in Fairy Cross near Bideford, North Devon. Set in four acres in a quiet location, the property comes with useful outbuildings and a new stable block (used by the sellers for alpacas). The buyers plan to run a small camping business on the grounds.
