Didn't expect so much interest :)

We are moving area but not far. Currently looking in Stoke Poges/Gerrards Cross. Nearest parkrun Black Park ;)

Are you moving area GM?

Safe trip Dio. Have a lovely time.

Happy house hunting, Linds! Sounds exciting.

Principal lighthousekeeper's cottage for sale at Strathy point for 150,000. Four beds and outstanding views! Spoiled by a couple of other apartments on the site but hopefully only holiday homes so you don't have regular neighbours.

It is not out of proportion by size for the area. Sadly more and more properties are holiday homes with automatic entry and owners in Tortolla 😕. The holiday rental prices are sky high.

So... if anyone wants to chip in and run a wee cycling paradise* business, 6 x 700ers at 25K each...

*yes, ok, it is the storm force gales

It looks amazing and if I show it to Liebling, she is going to want us to sell our house and move there.
