There are some sporadically placed fruit and non-fruit trees in the garden which gives different variations in the garden and where to spend time.

Passing another fruit tree you come up to the studio.

The alfresco terrace is encompassed by hedge row and low level walling, there are two wall mounted light points to the main house and feathered edge fence and gate gives access to the front aspect. This alfresco terrace is a wonderful feature especially if you are into alfresco dining.

.

A five bar pedestrian gate gives access from the alfresco terrace and into the additional property plot and is quite apt that we have moved from that to this as the initial area of the additional property plot is a potager area so we first come to a large and very well equipped poly tunnel, with raised beds with a lot produce growing very successfully. Entrances to each gable end allows some natural airing to the poly tunnel.

Working Greenhouse

The greenhouse has various openers for all the windows, the ceiling windows and sliding doors to both gable ends and power points. There is a central working table and again there are some wonderful produce being grown here.

This is all surrounded by lawn and as you venture through a cute awning you come to the external raised beds and again very successful and encompassed by low level fencing. To the rear of the potager garden is a garden workshop.

.

As you leave the potager garden you venture into the paddock and some sporadically placed fruit and non-fruit trees.

Paddock

The paddock runs away from the property and is laid to lawn. There is a river cutting and promoting the boundary of the plot. To the far right hand corner there is an area that has been left to wild-life, so is more of a natural garden. Spectacular views out over the surrounding farm and countryside and in the far left hand corner there is a cut through. To the far left hand corner it opens to a wooded area where again you can enjoy the sound of the river and the pathways are cut so that you can walk with the dance of the river as you go around, with little spots you can stop at and just see some spectacular living pictures of the surrounding countryside with the dance of the water being the soundtrack.
