The Location

Todber

The property is located in the small village of Todber in a rural but not isolated position and is within walking distance of Todber Manor Fisheries, which has the finest carp and course fishing in the south.

Just under a mile and half is the well served village of Marnhull where there are everyday facilities, with two primary schools, convenience stores with post office, doctor's surgery with a pharmacy and public houses and churches. The property is also within reach of independent schools, such as Clayesmore and Port Regis.
