Grounds
The garden and orchard is a very generous 1+ acres. It is surrounded by our own paddock which we are presently leaving fallow to encourage the biodiversity - there are a great range of flowers to see in the Spring! You are welcome to use it but we have encouraged it to grow so in the summer the grass can get long!
Top of the range charcoal barbecue (BBQ)
Ample garden furniture.
Two separate patio areas
Football goal
Pretty spectacular, or we think so anyway
Join the kitchen to the garden by opening up the patio doors
