Outside
The house is approached via Daffy Lane which leads onto a well maintained driveway with ample parking. The gardens lie predominantly to the south and west of the house, laid mainly to lawn, bound by mature hedging and dotted with clusters of specimen trees. They are perhaps best enjoyed from the terrace. In addition to the formal gardens there are two paddocks of a few acres both with gated entrances, fenced and hedged boundaries and one with a useful field shelter as well as a wooded area at the far end.
