The hillside garden is fully enclosed and thoughtfully landscaped across a series of terraces. Winding steps lead through herbaceous borders and gently curved beds, linking an upper terrace - perfect for sitting and enjoying the sea views - with a circular lawn below. The garden features an apple tree, two holly trees and a variety of well-established shrubs interspersed with spring bulbs. A lofty eastern wall - with roses, a vine and an apple tree trained along its surface – ensures shelter from the sea winds and complete privacy from the road. At the top corner of the garden stands an outbuilding with a window and tiled roof, providing practical storage. A secure garden gate at the bottom provides easy secondary access to the village and seafront.
