The historic market town of Alton has a good range of high street shops, Waitrose and M&S Simply Food, weekly market, senior schools, further education college, Alton School, sports centre, two outlying golf courses and mainline station to London Waterloo.

Outside
The garden is a very special feature of the cottage and has been landscaped to take full advantage of the setting with a principally south and west aspect. There are a variety of areas of interest and a good degree of seclusion with paved and brick paved areas to the front and side together with areas of lawn, mature hedging, several young and mature trees and flowering shrubs and plants. Pathways lead between the parking area, cottage, studio / home office and garden store. The outbuilding is a considerable asset to the cottage and adds an additional degree of space and flexibility.
