Outside much of the garden to the main house has been laid to lawn and contains a number of specimen trees. There is a formal rose garden and a small flagstone terrace off the sunroom. The French doors off the kitchen lead to the terrace surrounding the private heated swimming pool; the gardens also have a playhouse and a wonderful sandpit as well as a beautiful old stone-carved well and a spring-fed trout pond frequented by wild ducks.

The pretty two-bedroom cottage has been renovated to the same standard as the main house and also has rendered elevations clad with roses and clematis plus a pretty cottage garden.

Stoneleigh is situated in a private position at the end of a long drive on the edge of the hamlet of Tower Hill, just a mile from Horsham and Christ's Hospital Station. Horsham itself is a popular market town with an excellent range of shops and services.
