Property description
Boat Lane is located off Merstow Green, close to Evesham town centre, so is an ideal location for anyone working within the town or commuting by bus. It is a no through road leading down to the River Avon at the point where the Hampton Ferry crosses the river therefore also ideal for anyone who requires good dog walking areas on the doorstep.

To both sides there are raised Cotswold dry stone walled beds planted with a variety of plants, shrubs, bulbs, evergreens and herbs.
