The formal gardens are enchanting, with extensive strategically positioned terracing affording panoramic views, and there is also an all-weather tennis court discreetly positioned to the west of the main house.

The large living kitchen offers ample opportunity for everyday dining, relaxation and a generous kitchen area plus an adjoining utility/boot room with external access.
