Many of us dream of moving away from the hustle and bustle to find peace in the countryside, and this property offers the unrivalled seclusion and beauty that would tempt anyone away from city living.
Surrounded by rolling fields right in the middle of the Gower Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, The Lanches eco-lodge is a self-contained world to escape the noise, pollution and crowds - if you've got a few quid to spare.
For £695,000 the lucky owner of the oak-clad lodge will get about 20 acres of land including manicured lawns and pasture capable of growing a variety of crops for any budding gardeners out there to enjoy and explore.
If you like space and not being bothered by your neighbours, but still want to be near to civilization, The Lanches, situated near to the village of Knelston, is the perfect spot for a family or couple looking to escape to the country.
Advertised as having no light or noise pollution, the lodge has no close neighbours and is "secluded but with good access", about 14 miles away from Swansea and within easy driving distance of Gower's numerous stunning beaches.
Double oak gates mark the boundary of the property which is accessed by a driveway with a turning and parking area. Formal gardens as well as lawns surround the homestead.
