A wide arch leads to the dining hall, with stripped wood floor.
Access from the dining hall to the sleeping areas – the principal bedroom has en suite bath & shower room and stairs down to the basement dressing room. There are two further bedrooms with en-suites and two more with “Jack & Jill” access to a further bathroom.
Near to the house is the detached coach-house (a feature Art Deco clock graces the front elevation) containing the Garage and an external staircase to the Annexe with Bed/Sitting Room, Kitchen and Bathroom.
A detached Timber Cabin of about 900 sq ft is just to the rear of the house and contains a large Gym and a Games Room.
