The grounds provide both practicality and privacy, allowing the farmhouse, holiday cottage and equestrian facilities to operate independently if desired. The main house enjoys a landscaped courtyard garden laid to paving, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, while Swallow Barn benefits from its own generous lawned garden and patio area overlooking the paddock and surrounding countryside.
