The rear garden is two tiered with shallow steps leading to the upper tier which is a combination of patio areas and a small gravel area planted with succulents and herbs. There are various seating areas within the back garden which enable sun or shade to be found at all times of the day. There is a gravel driveway which makes it unsuitable for wheelchair access and the steps in the back garden make it unsuitable for people with mobility issues to reach the upper tier.
