Grounds

Approx 9.5 hectares in all, the chateau and outbuildings occupy a raised plateau with a circular lawn, studded with centenarian cedars, horse chestnut and evergreen oak.

Parkland

There is gravelled hard standing beside the main entrance with guest car parking provided to the rear of the outbuildings.

A second entryway, with pillars and gates, runs below an arched pergola of trained hornbeam. Below is a fenced area for chickens, ducks and geese.

The majority of the estate is down to pasture and a valley section is fenced into horse paddocks.

The southern boundary rises again in a spectacular curtain of cedars and oak woods.

Overview

Terraces to the south and west have magnificent views and lead through a formal garden towards a large round pond.

A kitchen garden to the north has yew, box and lavender parterres framing the vegetable and flower gardens.

A 18m swimming pool and gazebo summer house make a delightful summer entertaining area.
