Patio seating beside planting and a small pond

Morning coffee by the pond

Just outside the living room is a patio and pond area with seating — a quiet place for morning coffee, reading or sitting near the house while the garden wakes up.

The planting is a real part of the pleasure of the house, especially for guests who enjoy gardens: mature shrubs, flowers, birds and different textures through the season.

Evening dining at the end of the garden

At the far end of the garden is a gravel dining area designed for later-day sun and relaxed outdoor meals. It is a sociable spot for long summer evenings, with the lawn, mature planting and garden chairs close by.

The garden lighting and festoon lights make this one of the most atmospheric parts of the stay.

Large outdoor gas griddle being used for relaxed garden cooking

Outdoor cooking made easy

The large gas griddle gives the garden a proper outdoor-cooking focus: easy food, shared plates, and relaxed meals without everyone having to stay inside the kitchen.

Full operating and cleaning instructions are in the guest guide, so you will have the practical details when you need them.

South-facing and sunny

The garden faces south and gets sun through the day, with the top dining area catching light into the evening.

Space to spread out

There is lawn, patio seating, garden chairs and sun loungers, giving guests different places to read, play, eat or simply be outside.

A garden to notice

For gardeners, the mature planting gives the house a character that a new-build or bare rental garden rarely has.
