A sweeping private driveway leads to the side of the house, and the entrance begins with stone steps rising to an arched front door. From here a porch leads to the large reception hallway. Off here are the principal reception rooms and a wide staircase to the upper floors.
Off the hallway to the right is the formal drawing room with windows overlooking the gardens and a fireplace. The formal dining room is at the centre of the house and again has a fireplace and doors leading to the side terrace. An inner hallway leads to the family sitting room to the rear and the breakfasting kitchen which has floor and wall units with room for a small table. There is also a useful pantry, laundry room, wine cellar and coal store. A study and WC complete the ground floor accommodation.
