A cheap little house. 
What a brilliant location they had chosen for the shooting.

That was very fascinating article, thanks for sharing. I will probably never be able to have house like that

An architectural piece of art  I wonder, how it is to see your own house in a film?

I think that first housekeeper's thoughts could be "I hope filmmakers won't mess up in the kitchen."

Thanks for posting the link, Mattlocked.  I was curious about the house and enjoyed reading about it in this article.

The architecture of the house is very interesting, but for me is too cold.

"Appledore" will be open to the public ... for four hours in September!  I'm not sure if anybody here lives locally and fancies a look?
