Stawley, Wellington

An imposing period farmhouse, beautifully presented and retaining much character combined with all modern amenities, occupying an enviable setting with established gardens, paddocks and good equestrian facilities.

Little Brimley Farm is believed to date back to the 16th century and whilst many of the period features are evident and blend seamlessly with the modern fittings and conveniences the property is not Listed. In recent years, the property has been the subject of a stylish refurbishment where good quality materials and fittings have been the theme of the overall design.
