The house is not visible from the passing country lane and is approached down an unmade road, which passes through three paddocks fringed on their outer sides by mature trees. The drive ends at a gravelled parking area in front of the house with space for several cars. At the near end of one of the paddocks is a pig pen and an adjacent poultry house currently home to a flock of guinea fowl and two geese. A side spur off the drive leads to a further parking area in front of a double garage and an adjacent brick-built, period cow byre altered to form a workshop and adjacent garden/machinery store. The cow byre could potentially be converted to create a self-contained, single storey annexe to the main house, subject to obtaining the necessary consents. To one side of the house behind tall hedging are a summer house/home office and an orchard. The main part of the garden lies behind the house and is designed to require minimal maintenance. A narrow, paved terrace extends out from the back of the house to a lawn with a spinney of mixed woodland on one side and the stream flowing along the other. The stream is fed by a natural spring and never runs dry, even in the hottest of summers.

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
