During 2011 The Oaks was rebuilt and extended substantially. It has been refurbished to a very high standard and is beautifully presented throughout. A feature is the superb live-in kitchen, dining and sitting area which is ideal for modern day living with lots of glass affording plenty of natural light and making the most of the garden views. The Sun Room with full height aluminum, double-glazed windows, doors and pitched roof is open from the kitchen and leads through double glass doors to a spacious lounge with Wood Burning Stove. The whole space can be opened to create a lovely entertaining area.

The beautiful gardens are a sheer delight and are well stocked with literally hundreds of specimen plants, shrubs and trees.
