GROUNDS & OUTDOOR SPACE

The grounds are a true highlight of this remarkable property. Extending to approximately 8.7 acres, they offer a wonderful blend of managed gardens and natural woodland, creating an environment rich in wildlife and tranquillity. To the front of the property, a gravel pathway bordered by colourful shrubs and planting leads to a sheltered lean-to porch. The surrounding land extends beyond the immediate gardens, sloping gently towards boundary fencing, mature trees, and ultimately down to the river, which can be accessed via a gated pathway. To the rear, well-maintained lawned areas feature a variety of fruit trees, a storage shed, and a log store backing onto woodland. Adjacent mature gardens are filled with an array of shrubs, plants, and trees, with winding gravel paths creating a tropical-inspired atmosphere. These pathways lead to a greenhouse and the property's water filtration system, while further woodland and natural areas extend beyond. Positioned to the right of the cottage is the first of the two cabins, currently used as a dedicated cinema room. Fully insulated and equipped with power, lighting, and heating, it offers a comfortable year-round retreat. Outside, a decked seating area with partial cover and a wood-fired hot tub provides the perfect place to relax. To the left of the property, a pathway leads to the second log cabin. Currently operating as a successful holiday let, the cabin includes an open-plan living and dining area, kitchen, bedroom, wet room, and underfloor heating. A large, decked terrace with BBQ area and a second wood-fired hot tub enjoys complete privacy within its woodland setting. The remaining land has been largely left in its natural state, enhancing the property's sense of seclusion and connection to nature.
