Outside: The property sits on a plot of approximately eight acres and is at the highest point in Chartham Hatch, hence the name ‘Orchard Mount’ providing stunning views of the countryside and beyond.

Areas of the garden are used for soft fruit and veg and include plum and apple trees. There is also a wonderful broadleaf woodland which contains beech, oak & wild cherry trees.
