A lovely decking from the kitchen sits proudly, but privately, at the top of the garden.
The path leads from the front, round the side, to the back garden which is also laid mainly to lawn with, again, plants, trees and shrubs sprinkled throughout. a greenhouse and vegetable plot offer the chance to grow your own ‘five a day’. The back garden is bound by a stone wall at the side and back.
