The gardens adjoin a substantial fenced paddock ideal for the grazing of livestock, this flanked to one side by the River Clywedog which runs along the northern boundary.

Situation - The property is peacefully situated within the traditional village of Bersham, which straddles the River Clywedog and enjoys a range of local amenities, including a Church, Public House, and the Bryn Tririon School, whilst retaining a particularly convenient proximity to the nearby cities of Wrexham and Chester, both of which provide a winder range of amenities of all kinds, including educational, recreational and shopping facilities. Liverpool lies just 45 minutes to the north and the north Wales coastline is easily accessible by car via the North Wales Expressway.

At the T Junction, turn right onto Bersham Road and proceed for a further 0.7 miles where a right hand turn leads onto the B5098.
