The area you are considering is really lovelly and has the ring as well, shear heaven!:)

tell me about it, we've been out there loads of times. We will have an investment income, so the idea is to sort of retire v-early . And enjoy.
It all depends on the sums adding up. We are currently considering a small barn type dwelling with space split between living and storage/garage!!!
