And when the mood strikes, stroll just minutes down the lane to The Saracen’s Head — a friendly Georgian inn serving hearty, seasonal fare. Guests are also welcome to explore the majestic Hall and its vast parkland, where stories of the past unfold with every step. A tranquil hideaway, full of history, character and charm.
- There are open water features and unfenced areas within the estate grounds, so children should be supervised when exploring outdoors.
- Due to the property's historic layout, some rooms have uneven floors and low doorways.
- The single bedroom shares a Jack and Jill bathroom with one of the doubles, which may impact privacy for some guests.
