The historic house with its tree-lined driveway is full of character and surrounded by private, mature gardens, hidden terraces and ample parking spaces.

The three rooms that make up the restaurant feature stone mullioned windows, oak panelling and original fireplaces, providing a wonderful, relaxing atmosphere.
