The Coach House has a wonderful garden divided into two areas.

There is a large and raised entertaining decked terrace affording wonderful views down the valley and towards the South Downs. A gravelled pathway then leads down to a further area of lawn, an ornamental pond and an entertaining terrace directly outside the conservatory.
