Thatch, blackened oak and lime-washed walls outside; underfloor heating, twin dishwashers and six bathrooms within. The house works as one long social spine — kitchen to hall to drawing room — so an eighteen-strong party never feels split up.
The Dining Hall
The heart of the house. One long table seats sixteen with room to stretch to eighteen, so no one is split onto a separate table. A hatch straight through to the kitchen, candlelight and a working fireplace make catered celebrations and family roasts feel effortless.
The Drawing Room
Deep sofas and armchairs gather round the log burner beneath original beams, with plenty of room for the whole group to sit together. Sonos throughout, a wide-screen television and soft lamplight make it the room everyone drifts back to in the evening.
The Kitchen
A large island and prep runs on both sides give a private chef room to work, while the range cooker, twin dishwashers and full-height fridge mean six people can cook together without getting in each other’s way.
Rooms are arranged across two wings so families and couples can keep their own corner of the house. Every bed is dressed in Egyptian cotton, and six bath and shower rooms mean no morning queue.
Two singles / garden outlook
A quiet twin room with garden views, dressed in white linen and soft velvet. A calm corner for two guests.
Three singles / space to spread out
Three comfortable singles with room for bags and belongings — ideal for children or friends sharing.
King-size / vaulted oak frame
The largest room in the house, under the original oak frame. A king-size bed, deep quiet and space to properly switch off.
Double / garden outlook

Freestanding bath & walk-in shower
A deep freestanding bath and a separate walk-in shower, with room to unwind and no morning queue.
