Home description
The stately front door - reminiscent of a bygone era - hints at the famous visitors that have been entertained here including Queen Mary and Winston Churchill who both thought of the house as the perfect weekend retreat. The welcoming interior of the entrance hall retains many original first class Victorian features. In winter you will be greeted by the warmth of the open fire and in summer the light streams through the tall windows across the mellow wood floors.
Crossing the entrance hall you enter the classically elegant dining room, the absolutely stunning Drawing Room and the impressive staircase hall with its mahogany paneling and stained glass windows and you will be swept off your feet in seconds.
Moving into the kitchen you have a more modern view – a luxury well equipped kitchen and glass atrium breakfast room – cleverly styled to retain the country house feel by making a feature of an old well and including a beautiful cream range cooker.
The breakfast room opens through huge glass doors into a large family room – graced with another stunning fireplace, this room also has a large west facing window seat – equally appropriate for quiet reading and fantastic parties.
Just to top off that sense of being in a Victorian gentleman’s perfectly formed country estate there is even a pretty little garden room – just right for those early morning letters or tea in peace.
A both impressive and welcoming Victorian home
Always a warm welcome

The Central England / Cotswolds / Cheltenham / Gloucester region
Just west of London (90 minutes by rail or car), the Cotswolds is a hilly area around 100 miles (160km) north to south.
'Cotswolds' is a combination of two very old English words. Everyone's pretty much agreed that Wolds are gentle hills. And most people agree that 'Cots' are sheep enclosures. So 'Cotswolds' probably just means an area of gentle hills with plenty of sheep around.
Wotton Under Edge area
