A substantial country property in a rural location with approx. 15 acres, excellent equestrian facilities and wonderful views
Located between Ravenshead and Mansfield, Lindhurst Farm is currently utilised as a family home and has been sympathetically renovated over recent years by the current owners. The current owners operate a successful livery from the property, however it would suit private equestrian use. There is an outdoor manege, spacious American barn with fifteen internal stables, wash box, solarium and secure tack / feed room and there are a number of grazing paddocks ideal for turnout.
This spacious former hunting Lodge, built in c.1760 by the Duke of Portland, is situated on the edge of Harlow Woods which is part of the ancient Sherwood Forest. There are views from the house towards Fountaindale where Robin Hood is said to have met Friar Tuck.
