There are numerous kitchen areas to cater for groups as well as providing the possibility of dividing the property into multiple independent living accommodation.
The cloisters, library space, Medieval galleries and cellars are also echoed in the landscaped gardens that also provide plenty of room for private reflection. The garden also has a large pool and beautiful trees that are equally ancient and well preserved.
All living areas are tastefully decorated with period furnishings and artefacts that will remain with the property.
Typically the bedrooms are grand in volume, boasting unusual and unique features, with commanding views over the lush pastoral landscape it sits over.
