On the ground floor, the front door opens to a baronial vaulted reception with an oak-panelled staircase rising to a spectacular vaulted drawing room and galleried landing. From the hall, doors open to the dining room, which overlooks the front, and the sitting room which overlooks the rear. This has a fireplace with log-burning stove and French doors opening to the undercroft with its attractive brick pillars. The dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room has a range of units and a three oven Aga and there is a walk-in pantry off the rear hall.

On the first floor, in addition to the drawing room, there is bedroom 4 and bedroom 5/study, a bathroom and a useful craft room/store.

Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 7, 2022
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
