Outside
To the front an acre of grassed courtyard faced by other classic historical cottages. To the rear, and private to the guests, are ¾ of an acre of beautiful formal gardens inside a high brick wall that surrounds the property (making it very dog-secure).
In the gardens are three patio areas. The main patio by the house has a dining table for 8 guests, which can easily be increased by bringing the spare tables and chairs out from the Garden Room, ideal for al fresco dining day or night. The south facing garden patio offers sofa seating for 10 or more guests and has a BBQ area with BBQ — charcoal and gas (both provided), and a fire pit (logs supplied). The quiet patio has a large hammock and two deckchairs. All three patios are lit at night.
The Spa area has a six-seater jacuzzi hot tub, an infrared sauna seating four, and a changing area which is home to pool towels, robes, and sandals.
Further down the garden is the Tree House (with removable staircase for parents who prefer to limit use) and a secret den for the children.
At the far end of the walled garden is the games' pavilion with everything you need to play tennis (fun, not match), football, badminton, table tennis, croquet, cricket to name a few of the games. All the rackets and balls supplied and there is lighting enough to allow evening play if an important match runs late.
