Vendors' thoughts: "Foxfield has been the most wonderful family home for us, it has a warm welcoming feel, and plenty of space to accommodate lots of family and friends. We have loved the uninterrupted views from every window, great for wildlife spotting, but Chedworth is still in easy reach of main roads, and local towns, providing the best of both worlds."
