Really? All I can see is the "Guide Price  GBP 750,000"  under the picture on the website. The Brochure has the same figure.  What am I missing? Huh

It's about the right level of price for that sort of cottage in that sort of village in Oxfordshire... and the thatch won't need redoing for another 30 years or so Smiley

Maybe we could form a co-operative and run it as a recording studio with accomodation thrown in for while people are working there............?
then perhaps we could do B&B during a certain week in August too.....................?
