Garden And Grounds

This area has some lovely architectural features and some useful outbuildings including a large wood store, workshop, and store room. The rear garden is beautiful, a large south facing terrace links the back of the house and the cottage. There is an attractive water feature. The garden is mainly laid to a lush lawn with a wild meadow grass and flowers at the end of the garden to create a beautiful wild garden around a pretty garden cabin. The cabin itself has a covered deck, and stepping inside, there is an open plan room with kitchen area, wood burning stove and a separate shower room.
Situation
Russells Farm Cottage standing a beautiful rural position close to the villages of Hambleden and Frieth in the Chiltern Hills above the Hambleden Valley designated an area of outstanding natural beauty and famed for its wonderful walks, trails, and country pubs.
