Outside the principal gardens lie to the east and the north and are mainly laid to lawn interspersed with oak and beech trees. Close to the south east boundary is a large pond. A Sussex bothy provides a very attractive outbuilding and is currently used for storage -a greenhouse and other garden stores are also useful additions to the gardens. The land comes to around an acre in total.
Antye House is located around one mile from Wivelsfield with its local shops and mainline station which has a line into London Victoria. Haywards Heath is about three miles to the north and is the main regional centre.
