To be honest I never look at other farms unless they are on my doorstep,to much of me in this place now,not a chance I'll ever move.

I'm not sure tbh. I've never been there but the old boy that lived there was a bit old fashioned so I expect it could do with quite a bit of TLC. I'm guessing some of it will be rough grazing too. Maybe 3/400 welsh ewes?

I used to say that but if you sell for another place all the hard graft will be rewarded financially .?

Bloody big hotel etc right in the middle of that - prevailing wind is going to have them grumbling about the smell all the time. Phone masts excluded.

I've still got lots to do and I'm content where I am,I mean my Dads my neighbour on one side and my Uncle on the other,it's idyllic.

I've moved 5 times in 42 years all within the same square mile,I won't go far.
