To the rear of the property there is a delightful private riverside patio area with garden furniture (and a removable rotary clothes line), an ideal place to relax and watch the wildlife on the river - Please note that young children would need to be supervised when using this patio as there is a low wall (60cms high) and a steep drop down to the river.
