The land is accessible by a paved asphalt side road up to the house, without steep inclines or narrow passages. The road is normally passable by car in winter, but winter tyres and caution are advised in snow or ice. Parking itself is on a paved area of grassed plastic pavers that hold up well in wet conditions. In heavy rain or heavy snow, movement off the main paved area may be restricted - ideally, park directly in a designated space. In the event of extreme weather, please contact us - we will be happy to advise you on arrival.
Access is via an asphalt side road suitable for caravans and motorhomes. The narrowest point on the driveway is approximately 2.8 m wide, with no sharp bends. There is no need to reverse - the road is passable up to the parking space at the house. The parking area is level and paved (plastic paving stones), suitable even in the rain. If you have a caravan longer than 7 metres or a trailer, we recommend contacting us in advance to confirm.
