The sloping garden is landscaped with granite steps, a broad terrace, lawn and formal borders. A switch-back drive approaches the National Library of Wales. There is an extensive rockery between the caretaker's cottage and the drive, which is principally constructed with an artificial concrete-based conglomerate.
