There is a patio seating area, decked seating area and screened storage area for the oil tank, recycling and storage. There is ample parking with a yard to the rear.

FURTHER LAND

Two further fields are available by separate negotiation. These lie to the north and total about 7.15 acres. They are shown on the plan as edged blue.

The vendors gained consent for one paddock for a glamping site, some of the infrastructure is in place (wooden glamping platforms and outdoor kitchen structures) with provision for showers and toilets. The views from this field are superb.

Note. A right of way of the driveway and onto the green lane (shown hatched blue on the plan) will be reserved in favour of the further land.

A footpath runs along the drive from the highway and then over the green lane where it crosses one of the other fields.
