We are due to start the demolition of our house to build our new home.
We therefore need to rent whilst this is undertaken. We have found a lovely place that is on a working farm and has a yard within 20metres. It's a decent size yard - about 50 horses over 200 acres.

Positives - It's beautiful, peaceful, there's a shoot on the farm, only one neighbour in a half mile radius.

Downsides - some of the farm buildings are asbestos, rats????

Has anyone experience of living this close to a yard? What are the pros and cons? Downsides we can

I would say there is stabling for 30ish horses which all appeared to have heads out at some point or another. There were probably another 10 or so in the paddocks I could see so on that basis I'm assuming there are more in the fields beyond.

My sister is horsey so I know what people mean about crazy.....
