In all about 71.62 acres

LAND
The land extends beyond the stable yard with undulating fence enclosed pasture fields cradled within the valley floor, known as Frances Bottom and steeper slopes rising up to the ridge on the north interspersed with pockets of woodland and scrub. The land has been managed by way of the grazing of livestock and horses and in total extends to about 64 acres.

CERTIFIED LOCATION CARAVAN SITE
A Certified Location touring caravan site with electric hook up points and water standpipes, is located beyond the outdoor tennis courts, situated within an attractive pasture field interspersed with trees, enclosed by a combination of woodland, hedging and post and rail fencing with a set of metal field gates securing the entrance.

CAMPSITE
Beyond the touring caravan site and set within the adjoining pasture field running along the valley bottom is the campsite, presently operating under the 28 day rule as well as benefiting from some other permitted development rights. The site has a number of electric hook up points and
water standpipes and is served by shower/toilet blocks and also a rubbish and recycling station. The field has been used for camping for over 20 years and as an established tourist asset to the area, there is good potential to extend the camping season (subject to all necessary consents).

TIMBER YARD
Situated opposite the camping field set above the farm track is the timber yard, which also provides a service area for the campsite, there are a number of outbuildings set within the yard including a timber framed three bay log store and machinery store.

UPPER STABLE YARD
Located at the far end of the farm access track there is a general purpose steel framed building that has been converted into stabling, providing 12 loose boxes with mezzanine tack room and store. The building has a concrete floor as well as the benefit of mains water from a private supply. There are various adjoining/associated outbuildings used for hay/feed and general storage.

OUTDOOR TENNIS COURTS
Three asphalt tennis courts constructed in the 1980s to operate in conjunction with the indoor centre are located on the southern side of the farm track sitting below the barn. They benefit from floodlighting and are enclosed by chain link fencing though the surfaces are presently
in a poor state of repair.
