Let your imagination run wild in this intimate family home steeped in history. A house spanning the centuries from its royal beginnings in Tudor times to its place as a welcoming retreat full of intrigue for you to explore, lose yourself in an era of inspiration with names such as Jane Austen gracing our story. Discover a chapel where sunlight streams in through magnificent stained-glass windows, an ancient Roman ring and a theatrical 18th-century staircase hall. The view from the house steals your breath with the silent beauty of the first hoar frost, the autumnal glow through a misty morning to lazy summer days spent picnicking on the lawn that stretches to a shimmering lake. The gardens are a peaceful escape from the suburban surrounds. Discover secret picnic spots, stroll by the ornamental lake or explore the restored Walled Garden now a working kitchen garden providing delicious, fresh and seasonal produce to our Tudor Tea room.
