The stairs, lead up from the hall to the first floor landing landing, giving access to the family bathroom and two bedrooms, one having two levels and a sitting area. Outside, a driveway provides parking and gives access to the garage with double doors, power and lighting. The visitors centre/office has a sink unit, cupboards and opens out to the conservatory area, ideal for visitors taking tea etc. Located in the grounds is the Folly Tower, comprising of an open terrace ground floor and a first floor room. The Tower has the potential for conversion to visitors accommodation, subject to the necessary planning consent. To the rear of the gardens is a timber garden store and greenhouse. The gardens are truly remarkable and hard to describe, so photographs of them can be seen on www.arrowcottagegarden.co.uk. The whole plot is divided into more than 20 separate ‘rooms’ by hedges and yew and beech, together with clipped shapes to make it a dream of a garden.
