Gardens and Grounds

The sweeping tree-lined gravel driveway extends to the rear of the house and stables.

Adjacent to the main house and stables, there is an impressive outdoor manège measuring 20 x 60 meters, with a Martin Collins eco track surface.

The land closest to the stables is divided into 6 Tornado fenced paddocks which can be divided into 10 turnout areas, each with gates, grass-matted entrances, and all have automatic water troughs. Additionally, there is a large area of land that is currently used as a hay field that could be used as grazing.

There is convenient vehicular access to the stables, fields, and arena. A public footpath runs along the east boundary of the property for a short distance, but the owners have fenced a dedicated path to maintain privacy.
