Gardens

Set in around one third of an acre, the large sunny garden encompasses the cottage.  To the front, which is mainly laid to lawn, there is a raised patio area leading from the lounge with lovely views to the Clyde Estuary. An ideal spot for watching the ever changing scenery or relaxing in the sun.

The mature, well maintained rear garden is fully enclosed by a dry stone wall.  A slabbed patio area provides plenty of space for a table and chairs to enjoy the summer evenings while a quaint stone bridge over the stream adds to the charm.

Outbuildings

One stone outbuilding and three large wooden sheds provide lots of additional storage.
