The back door of the cottage opens onto a courtyard garden which is completely dog-proof and a real suntrap from late morning. There is a large parasol umbrella to provide shade, and a table and chairs for alfresco dining. Also a small BBQ for use in the courtyard or the lower garden area.
From the courtyard there is a gate to the amenity area (bike and bin storage) and herb garden. Guests can help themselves to the herbs and seasonal vegetables growing there.
The herb garden leads to the grassed Lower Garden area which is available for guests’ private use at all times. There is an outside dining table and chairs and also loungers. There is also a washing line here.
