Outside - Externally a gated driveway provides generous parking and leads around to the rear of the property where there is a purpose built block of 4 stables, carport and an adjoining general purpose storage shed.

The beautifully landscaped 2 acre meadow was created by the current owners primarily to attract wildlife and to also provide an idyllic haven of untamed beauty of meandering pathways that lead through settled tall grasses that include Yorkshire Fog (Holcus Lanatus), a magnificent patchwork of wildflowers and a profusion of trees and specimen shrubs that include beech, oak, English walnut, tulip poplar, white beam and Italian alder complemented by variety of fruit trees and a kitchen garden.

Acting as a corridor from Yearsley forest and the stretch of wood heading down the valley towards the breathtaking Oulston reservoir, the garden attracts an abundance of wildlife and is resident to finches, hedge sparrows, field fayres and snipe in the winter.
