Originally dating to 1768, the hall has, over the intervening centuries, evolved to now stand as a particularly impressive home with a ground floor which comprises an array of versatile reception rooms which, whilst boasting dimensions typical of the era, retain a welcoming ambience, allowing the property to exquisitely balance majesty of the setting and arrangement with the needs of everyday living.

The upper floors continue the elegance much in evidence on the ground, with 16 refined bedrooms, some of which are interconnecting, served by 6 bathrooms, with a
number being en-suite.

The property is approached via a sweeping driveway which culminates to the fore of the hall, where an expanse of lawn provides sublime views to the west
