Currently most of the land is laid to grass, with gardens and many mature trees. Paths have been cut along the river banks and through the fields, where many species of trees and plants can be found. The right hand photo below shows the walk to the river.
Close to the house are specimen trees, along with pear, apricot, apple, nectarine, peach, cherry and plum trees. There are also vines producing an abundance of grapes, and walnut and hazelnut trees which attract red squirrels.
