The tiered rear garden affords a great deal of seclusion, with a large patio terrace providing an ideal entertaining space, with steps to an attractive raised gravelled area interspersed with shrubbery, and a right of access through a side gate leading to the front of the cottage
Like previous owners, the current owners have parked off road on the gravelled area in front of the cottage for the last 20 years and although this is not within the title of the cottage, it is deemed as their parking space
