This 1800's house is beautiful inside and out. Our (Gill) room was huge, breakfast was adequate and the pool and gardens were an added bonus. We especially loved the billiards table and played many games.

Great old houses, plenty of land around the house. Plenty of choice for breakfast. Massive kitchen, large high ceiling rooms. Shared bathroom was fine.

It is a cozy family home. Everyone can find something to their liking. You can play tennis and billiards and swim in the pool. In the evening sit by the fireplace with a cup of hot coffee or retire to the library.

  • Hi, Just wondering if my dog can sleep in the room with me? Also when i visit the Zoo can i leave him in here, He's well trained and obedient Regards Jim
    Hi Jim, a previous guest left his dog unsupervised in his room. The dog was anxious in a strange place and badly scratched the historic 1875 door and architrave. Pets can be safely left in one of the compartments in the pet cottage when you are out.
    Answered on August 15, 2022
  • Would you allow a west highland terrier to stay in the room -
    We allow well-behaved, house-trained dogs under 8kg to stay in the guest rooms. Dogs larger than that stay in the pet cottage which has 5 separate compartments and comfy pet bedding provided.
