THE BUILDING
This beautiful and wonderful listed Georgian stucco fronted home was built in 1814 and extended in 1820 and 1860 to create a spacious light filled home with plenty of receptions so that families can be together but not on top of each other. Since then the house has been lovingly restored to create a relaxed and comfortable home with luxurious comfort, good wifi and modern convenience. (Loads of history - The curved timbers used in the bow windows were from wood prepared for the hulls of the ship built for the Napoleonic war.)

INTERIOR & RECEPTION ROOMS
On the ground floor there are 3 reception rooms: (1) the light filled Blue Drawing Room (with a TV) with french doors on to the garden terrace; (2) the Library; (3) the family Lounge with epic 5m L shape sofa and 70inch QLED TV. There is round tabled dining room to seat up to 10 and a Breakfast Room off the kitchen with a sofa and table seat 6, as well as two outdoor dining / lounge areas.

Upstairs there are 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms (4 of which are en suite), all of which are light filled and face south across the River Severn and the meadow. The beds all have high quality mattresses for extra comfort and all rooms come with towels and professionally laundered white ironed bedding. Most bedrooms have a sofa or seating area.

GARDEN & GROUNDS
The 4 acres of grounds comprise of a 1 acre south facing garden laid to lawn with 2 lounge areas (the large sofa shaded summer canvas gazebo is in summer months only) and all year round terrace with sofas off the Drawing Room. Beyond that is a our 4 acre natural meadow, which we leave to nature in summer allowing wild flowers and grasses to grow to create a natural wild space for birds, bees and of course guests and their pets to enjoy. (It's also great for a summer picnic!)
