THE GARDENS

Bowden Hayes is initially approached from the village road via a private entrance drive which opens through to a large gravelled parking and turning area with the detached garage/workshop adjoining. This leads to an attractive cobbled courtyard and also provides access to the neighbouring property, The Old Cob Barn, which benefits from a right of way. Within the cobbled area is an elevated converted studio/home office and a veranda links the entrance porch to the garden room.
The adjoining gardens and grounds create a most attractive feature of the property containing a variety of lawned areas, small orchard, polytunnel, fruit cages and a pretty pond. There are also levelled seating areas and a patio with pergola.

The gardens enjoy privacy and seclusion and in all, Bowden Hayes extends to about 0.57 of an acre.
