Impressive stone pillared metal gates open onto the principle courtyard with access to the coach house and main house. The house is entered through a large wooden door into the entrance hall which has direct views onto the gardens. To the right of the reception hall is a double aspect drawing room with a fireplace at both ends of the room and seven sets of full height, south facing sash windows overlooking the garden. To the left of the reception hall is a large impressive dining room with windows looking onto the gardens and grounds with far reaching views. The sitting room leads off the dining room, with a fireplace to the centre and access onto the terrace. The kitchen combines sitting and dining areas in one impressive room with access onto the courtyard and gardens. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room and a former butler’s pantry.
