To the front of the house is the the large gravelled courtyard area for parking which can comfortably accommodate up to 6 cars. Across the front courtyard are numerous farm buildings including a chicken shed and a massive bread oven which was formerly used as a communal oven for the hamlet.

To the rear is the patio area which is partially paved with concrete slabs and partially gravelled. The barbeques and several lounge seats are in this area with the large outdoor table in the 12 metre squared covered area to facilitate al fresco dining in the shade. Extra outdoor table and chairs are available if the numbers demand.

The large garden area (slightly less than one acre) is accessed by descending steps from the patio as is the 5.4 metre diameter swimming pool (not the same steps!). A children's play area with Playhouses, see-saw, slides, and swings is sited nearby. There's a recently erected 4.5 metre diameter wigwam for guests of an adventurous nature,

Access to the pool is guarded by a lockable gate. The pool and patio areas, as well as parts of the garden, are afforded intermittent shade by the numerous very tall trees which surround the area.

There's an extensive range of sporting utensils e.g.tennis rackets, cricket bat, hurleys, footballs, rugby balls, golf clubs, boules, and croquet set for use in the garden area. Several bicycles are provided along with helmets.
