The garden surrounds the cottage on three sides. The entrance gate leads into a pretty flagged and gravelled area, with small pockets of flowerbeds and an original granite trough. A further gate leads into a secluded granite-walled courtyard – a real suntrap – with a garden seat and a small summerhouse.

The main garden is landscaped with steps, winding gravel paths and lawns and is a delightful area to sit and relax or entertain. Lavishly planted, it is a riot of colour in the summer with plenty of birdlife. The views across the surrounding countryside and the ancient village church are glorious.
