A side gates leads onto the gravel driveway where there is room for parking. A patio continues around the back and side of the house, where there is space for seating, followed by a lawn area which overlooks the paddock land and countryside beyond. The hard standing driveway continues to a wider parking area, with the stables to your left and access to the paddocks. This area is ideal for parking a small horse lorry or trailer.

There are four separately fenced winter paddocks. The stables are within a wooden barn which is tucked away, within the plot, with a useful feed room next to two stables. There is also a power point, and tack room with lighting, and a wash box with a gas operated shower along with a tractor/hay store which could potentially be used as further stabling. There is additional storage above the barn stabling and a separate tool shed with lighting.

At the bottom of the land is a wonderful spinney, accessed via a gate and is maintained by the current owners to hold a wildlife and conservation area. It is filled with bluebells, wild garlic and daffodils during the spring, and there is a green pond, and a wonderful swing.
