The gardens at Rhodmad were a source of much-pleasure for the previous owners and we are sure the delightful features will provide great enjoyment for the new owners.

A decoratively stoned area fronts the house and stepping stones lead around to a crazy paved patio area and covered log store. The garden surrounds the farmhouse on three elevations, with the main garden being predominantly laid to lawn with tree, shrub and flower borders. A babbling stream together with a waterfall, passes through the garden and is crossed by a bridge to a wooded and shrub wildlife area.
The remnants of a former stone pig-sty under a slate roof are in situ.
