The private drive leads to a large, tarmacked parking area suitable for horse boxes and numerous cars. The workshop building offers space for storage and has four stables to the south side of the building, overlooking the yard. The outdoor arena is of sand and rubber construction and benefits from floodlights and a spectator box. Adjacent to the arena is a covered section with stalls which can be used as additional, informal stabling or as a tacking and prep area. A further four timber stables and storage room adjoin this.

Set in the centre of the yard is the Monarch horse walker which has capacity for five horses and is in good working order with multifunctional control panel giving an array of settings.
