Part of the area is planted with fruit trees - such as apple, cherry, quince, pear and fig - and a gravelled strip for parking. An ancient lime tree stands in front of the main house. The house stands in the centre, where a few boxwood bushes conceal a stone staircase leading to the cellars. Outbuildings adjoin the main dwelling and face rolling countryside. The old entrance features a double spiked gate with two stone pillars on either side. The inner courtyard is enclosed by walls punctuated by large white stone columns, suggesting that this was once a very busy area used as a relay station. The rear facade overlooks a large garden with tall trees, a tennis court and an acacia wood overlooking the property.

Small round arches with voussoirs
