As far as a "Weekender" goes, they don't come much better! This 21 Acre (approx.) allotment is a fantastic block in its own right that will provide you and your family with years of memories. You can imagine spending Christmas here with the extended family camping and coming together in the large well-appointed common area having laughs as you play games and watch the kids explore the beautiful countryside. The mud brick kitchen and lounge area is the heart of this property and is powered by renewable energy with its own wind turbine, solar panels, batteries and a backup generator.
