Griffin Lodge forms one half of a converted tythe barn situated within the 18th century parkland of Grade II listed Compton House. It has an elevated and private position backing onto the former high-walled kitchen garden and looks out over the rooftops of the main house to countryside beyond. Internally the ground floor houses the central dining hall, study, bedrooms and bathrooms.

The roof space accommodates the sitting and kitchen/breakfast areas arranged around three sides of an open space looking down onto the dining hall below.

Outside the property there is a private parking area (with additional guest parking) and a lit gravelled path leading up to the garden, which incorporates a rear gravelled terrace, front paved/decking area, lawn and substantial stone outbuilding.
