The bedrooms contain high specification finishing, with the recently added principal and main guest bedrooms retaining the larger spaces with walk in wardrobes, French doors with glass Juliet balconies, electric curtain rails, and exposed oak king trusses with purlins. The two main ensuites boast impressive specifications, with porcelain tiling, Burlington WC and shower fittings, William Holland copper bath and an Aquabella shower tray, both with underfloor heating. Garden and Grounds Outside the main house, a wealth of outbuildings occupy the grounds, including a very hospitable annex space with a kitchen/diner, living room and bedroom, a large gym space, and three stable units, with a wood store and tack room.
