We fell in love with the house as soon as we saw it and walked into the living room with its warm and friendly atmosphere. It is very quiet and peaceful and we shall be sad to leave but we are relocating to be near our family. Monkton is a delightful village with its old church, a primary school within very easy walking distance and the White Stag pub and hotel.
