OUTSIDE
Harvey House is set behind high mature hedges and a pair of wooden gates (which could be upgraded to be electrically powered) leading into a gravelled courtyard, which provides an ample turning and parking area.

The gardens continue around to the south of the house where there are a number of shaped flowering and herbaceous borders, enclosed by beech hedging and a further lawn sweeps round to an arch leading onto the sandstone terrace, which makes an ideal alfresco dining area.
