overlooks the garden. The fully enclosed
level garden has a large grassed area for

woodland and heath land, great for walking

woodland is Moors Valley Country Park which

coastline with its Blue Flag beaches at
Poole and Bournemouth are just a short
drive, as is the famous New Forest National

box’ villages and rugged coastline.
