Outside, the gardens of The Cottage play as important a roll in family life and entertaining as the rooms within. Automatic up down lighters frame all five doorways out from the house, whilst solar lights adorn every pillar around the courtyard giving a romantic ambience in the evening. A pond sits within a quiet, shady corner of the garden (currently drained due to the presence of grandchildren) whilst a blue slate patio provides the perfect place for relaxing on a hot summer's day. The west-facing courtyard is designed for summer evenings, watching the spectacular sunsets, as the outdoor lighting takes over from the burnished sun, illuminating the pillars on the wall, and under the eaves of the stables to cast a romantic glow. An area of decking extends to the south-facing front of the home, easily accessed from the French doors of the dining room, meanwhile a new, timber-built, covered seating area faces the kitchen, adjacent to the barbecue area, ideal for alfresco dining. Established trees permeate the half acre of gardens, including apple, pear and plum as well as oak and conifer.
