The property is bounded on the west and north by the Glenaniff River and the opportunity arises to harness the water flow to generate energy. The poly tunnels which measure 30 meters by 4 meters offer the opportunity to become self sufficient in a wide range of food stuffs and with the large volume of space therein lies the opportunity to run a business by producing fruits & vegetables – subject to planning..

The poly tunnels were deliberately set on their current location due to the natural drainage fall and over a number of years the owners have built up significant tree and hedges to provide sufficient shelter from the westerly winds. As our pictures show tunnel 1 boasts a table top style filled with manure and soil for 18 meters and additional room to propagate and the opportunity for seeds to germinate. Tunnel 2 is part designed with leisure in purpose and the exquisite hand built stone features are also filled with manure and soil.
