South-facing and sunny
The garden faces south and gets sun through the day, with the top dining area catching light into the evening.
Garden & Outdoor Dining
The garden is the heart of the house.
This is not just a strip of lawn attached to a holiday let. It is a mature, south-facing garden with established shrubs, layered planting, sunny and shaded corners, a pond near the patio and places to sit as the light moves through the day.
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.
Atmosphere after dark
The black metal portal, low uplights and festoon line are designed to draw the eye through the garden and make the gravel court feel connected to the house rather than tucked away at the end of the lawn.
It gives the garden a soft evening glow: practical enough to use, but still gentle enough to feel like sitting outside among shrubs, trees and planting.
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.
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.
