Dating back to the 18th century, this distinguished country house seamlessly blends period grandeur with modern comfort. Throughout the property, original sash windows, ornate cornicing, decorative coving, exposed beams, and feature fireplaces showcase its rich heritage and character. Designed with entertaining and socialising in mind, the house offers two beautiful lounges, each with its own distinctive decor and character. The drawing room provides a sophisticated space for gathering, while the cosy snug, complete with an open fire, offers a cosy retreat on cooler evenings. At the heart of the home is the stunning kitchen, featuring a central island, breakfast area, and everything needed for preparing memorable meals. Opening directly onto the terrace and gardens, it seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living, where breathtaking views across the valley create a spectacular backdrop. A formal dining room sets the scene for celebratory meals and special occasions, while the generous accommodation comprises four beautifully presented bedrooms, including three doubles and one twin.

A paddock on the edge of the lawns is home to charming Shetland ponies, enhancing the idyllic countryside setting.
