The gardens are a true highlight of Plovers Cottage. The current owners have lovingly nurtured the outdoor space over the past 30 years, including the established boundary hedges and trees.

To the rear of the garden is a bespoke shepherd’s hut (available under separate negotiation) which sits within the established orchard of apple and pear trees. Used as a popular Airbnb for the past fewyears, it offers a proven income stream.

To the front, a gravel driveway provides parking for several vehicles. A large workshop, which previously had planning permission for the erection of a three bedroom bungalow, offers superb potential (subject to necessary consents), and is complemented by two further outbuildings.
