There is a front gate leading from the driveway which accesses the front gardens, having a good expanse of lawn either side of a central path to the front porch. The lawns then continue around to the sides of the cottage. The left hand side has access to a back gate, also leading to the driveway, whilst the right hand side in turn leads to another large area of lawn, on a slightly lower level, separated by a post and rail fence. The second area of lawn is bordered on two sides by a high hedge with mature trees and hedging.
