Externally
Approached down a stone slab drive with a tree lined paddock to the right, the property opens into a large courtyard between the home and the outbuildings, providing parking for numerous vehicles. The cottage style gardens are well stocked with a variety of mature shrubs and foliage and offer quaint areas to sit back and relax. Beyond the home lie the fields, bordered by many fine mature trees and, on the northerly edge by a brook in the woodland, there are two natural ponds in the fields that provide the visiting wildlife a source of cool water.
