“Hill top house was the perfect accommodation.”

Spacious, warm, very well equipped in a beautiful location. Michelle was a great host & super helpful. We couldn’t have asked for a better weekend.

It is so spacious and well equipped. Everyone enjoyed themselves whether in the house and garden or the surrounding area. Welcome basket was a lovely surprise. Thank you.

“Hilltop House was even better in reality than portrayed in photos, the family all said!”

Fantastic venue with all the comforts to make for a great party of 20 family members ranging from 1 - 85 years old! The grounds and views were stunning - having the games room, childrens playroom and hot tub covered everything for all ages

- Samantha, September 2024

Philip September 2024

“Lovely big old property with massive rooms connected by corridors and stairs going everywhere.”

Easy to get lost when you first arrived but all part of the attraction. The 5 kids with us were very unsure at first but then it became the best place in the word to play hide and seek!

- Philip, September 2024

We are really pleased that you enjoyed your celebration weekend at Hilltop House and that you enjoyed "hide and seek". Thank you for your booking - the bunting looked great! Property Owner

Anna August 2024

“We had an amazing stay.”

The house had everything we could have wanted for our friends week away. There was plenty of space for the children to play outside and the comforts of the house suited our large party very well. Everything was as advertised on the website and the house, although old, was clean and well kept. We’d love to return for another holiday!

- Anna, August 2024

We would love to see you back again and hope to see you all again. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your friends holiday so thank you for booking Hilltop House and choosing rural Worcestershire. Property Owner

Julia June 2024

“Fabulous week at Hill Top House.”

Beautiful house and gardens with stunning views. Plenty of kitchen utensils, plates and glasses and great to have two large fridges and two dishwashers! Loved the dinning room that could seat 20 people! Owners Michelle and Roger were great hosts and very responsive to our needs and requests. The pool and hot tub were great additions. Plenty of space for all the family.

- Julia, June 2024

It was an absolute pleasure to host you and your guests at Hilltop House. We are of course delighted that you enjoyed your stay and that the house exceeded your expectations. Thank you for your. booking and we hope you see you all again one day! Property Owner

“A beautiful property with enormous rooms, immaculate large gardens and wonderful views.”

The owner was very helpful and quick to respond on the several occasions that we needed help (for one reason or another).

- Barbara, May 2024

It is always just great to know that visitors have enjoyed themselves at Hilltop House. It was so good to meet you all and know that we have helped a group of family and friends to enjoy a get-together. Thank you for visiting rural Worcestershire. Property Owner
Jacqueline May 2024

“Hilltop House is the perfect place for a special celebration with friends.”

It well and truly exceeded our expectations, with inside and outside space, plenty for everyone to fizz and be quiet by turns. The pool and hot tub add a whole extra dimension. The kitchen and dining room had everything we needed and more, and there's easily enough fridge space for food and drink for 20. The photos are accurate, but being here is so much more, the house welcomed each and every one of us, and with each room having its own thought-through decor, everyone has their own special space. Strolls round the garden looking at the plants, sharing expertise, particularly useful for one studying with the RHS. The cows and sheep have been a wonderful backdrop for our whole stay. When photographing friends in their room, most wanted the picture with the view in the frame. Leaving, one said 'when we leave somewhere, I usually just want to get home, but I don't want to go, can we stay?' and another, here for 24 hours, said they feel like they've been on holiday. 'I think I might book something like this for my 60th... would you mind if I chose Hilltop House?' The various staircases lend a mystery to the whole experience, never quite sure where you are or where you'll end up. If there's a problem, it's a perfect storm of their being something you want to photograph every few minutes and constantly saying 'now where did I leave my phone?'

- Jacqueline, May 2024

Thank you for such a wonderful review and we are so pleased that you enjoyed staying in the unique space that is Hilltop House. It was wonderful to meet you all and are really pleased that you will consider re-visiting. We would love to see you again here in rural Worcestershire. Property Owner
Jennifer March 2024

“We have just returned from a 7 day Easter Break at this amazing house.”

There were 8 adults and 6 children (and 1 dog) and we just loved this house. It has a great large kitchen with a table to sit 8, this is where we spent most evenings, playing games and just generally chatting. It has a much larger dining room which sat 16. It had 2 lounges which we allocated as a games/computer room and a quiet lounge. It has a twin room on the ground floor which would be great for someone who would struggle with stairs and a downstairs bathroom with shower. On the second floor there wasa double and twin with a shared bathroom and a double and twin with a bathroom in between - this was great for 2 familes. There was also a king with ensuite which we took as we didnt have children. On the 3rd floor there was another king with ensuite and bathroom which we didnt use and then another staircase with a playroom and twin which again we didnt use. At first glance it looks overwhelming with so much space we in actual fact having so much space was excellent. Outside was a games room with pool table, a hot tub, a patio with BBQ and a huge garden with loads of parking. Michelle was fantastic - she contacted me prior to arrival and popped in after we arrived. There was a lovely homemade victoria sponge as a welcome gift! We unfortuately managed to break an ornament while we were there - not the kids or the dog - while closing one of the blinds and Michelle was really lovely about it and we arranged a replacement for it before we left. There was a guitar in the dining room which we ordered some new strings for while we were there and luckily there were 3 guitar players in our group so were able to play and have a sing song. All in all I would absolutely recommend this home for a large gathering of friends/families.

- Jennifer, March 2024

We are so pleased that you had such a happy stay at Hilltop House. It was lovely to meet you and your group getting together over long distances. Thank you so much for fixing the guitar strings and for tuning it which leaves it in good shape for future players and sing-a-longers. Your group also left the house in very good order - thank you. We hope to see you again one day! Property Owner

“Excellent venue for a family “get together “.”

Good sized reception rooms and large dining table to accommodate 20+. Pool table and hot tub also good.

Jeff November 2023

“Family friendly house.”

Not too pristine so more relaxing with kids/dogs. Loads of room and very comfortable. Generally good cooking facilities and plenty of crockery etc. lovely views. Very friendly staff/owners; quickly dealt with minor problem. Would happily come back.

Dave September 2023

“We had a brilliant time with our family and friends and it was lovely to meet you both.”

We loved the house and it’s genuine feel . It is well stocked with everything you could wish for including toys for the children in a super playroom which our 3 year olds loved. The garden is beautifully maintained in spite of a visit from some neighbouring cows! You responded promptly to the few issues we reported ie the dodgy shower and the broken chair. Many thanks.

- Dave, September 2023

It was really good to meet you and your lovely party and we are all pleased to know that you enjoyed your celebration birthday! Thank you for your swift rounding up of the cattle and not allowing them as far as the garden borders, which could have been messy! Thank you so much for your booking at Hilltop House. Property Owner
David September 2023

“The property is amazing.”

Everything we wanted and more. There was 14 of us and our two labradors. Everyone had an amazing time especially our labradors. Would 199% recommend

- David, September 2023

It was great to meet you all and we are so pleased that you enjoyed your special birthday celebrations here at Hilltop. You were very well organised with caterers and the hottest and sunniest weekend for months! We hope our paths will cross again. Property Owner
Fuchsia August 2023

“Overall, this is a really lovely property, with large and comfortable bedrooms, great garden, flexible living and dining space.”

A downstairs bedroom is a massive plus for these extra large holiday homes, as they often host multi-generational families and it's not unusual to find one of the party is less abled, as is the case in our group. We went as a large extended family group, with a range of kids aging from 18 months- older teenagers and everything in-between. The little play room upstairs was appreciated, as were all the books and games, plus there was some plastic dinnerware and a high chair. If any families with babies are considering this property, it works well as one of the bedrooms on the first floor is listed as having a 'dressing room'- in reality it's a really large, almost empty room with its own light and internal window, It doesn't have a door, but is round the corner from the double bed, and there was already a cot in there- it's perfect for sticking a baby or toddler in either in a cot or on a blow up bed, as we did! Hot tub was lovely, and the kids somehow enjoyed the freezing cold above ground pool, despite it being the only horrible weather week in August. A few minor considerations or issues, none of which impinged on our holiday: -There needs to be a tumble dryer in a house which sleeps this many people! For a weekend, probably not necessary; but for a week, you're going to be doing washing and it's near impossible to bring everything you'd require without needing to- e.g, I have 5 children, it's unrealistic for me to pack an outfit for each day plus spares-! Not to mention cot bedding (accidents, nappy leaks) and towels- which you're requested to bring for the hot tub, muddy clothes etc.... On a wet weather week as we had, there was constant drippy washing hanging around the Aga and we all had to bring back damp clothes. -The oven glass plate in the door was loose and kept slipping out- this in itself is minor, but when we contacted the owner, they knew it was like this. Imo, you tell guests something like that very clearly, or make sure it's fixed- if it had slid out, boiling, I wouldn't be writing that this was a minor issue, and we might have had a really serious accident. The owners were very prompt in replying though, and the house was very clean and well maintained in general, so I'm sure they will take this on board. The lightbulbs are still old fashioned incandescent bulbs, in bedside lamps. This is so unsafe, and they should be switched to LED bulbs. My 11 year old was fumbling to switch her light off one night, touched it, and burnt her finger quite nastily. Overall a wonderful week and a superb house- I would recommend it highly! For context, as a family, we have been taking an annual week's holiday to a large UK property for the past 33 years. So we have a lot to compare to, and Hilltop definitely stacks up extremely well, top ten! Thank you for a great week.

- Fuchsia, August 2023
Stephen August 2023

“The house and gardens were fantastic and a perfect setting for my birthday celebrations with family and friends.”

We received a warm welcome including our dogs. There was plenty of room for the 14 of us and the facilities were excellent including very comfortable beds and a well equipped kitchen. I would highly recommend this property

- Stephen, August 2023

It was good to meet you all and we are so pleased that you all had a happy stay at Hilltop House. Your dogs had a lovely time running around the garden we are pleased that you found the house comfortable and well equipped. Maybe we will see you again one day. Thank you for coming. Property Owner
Margareet August 2023

“All 19 of us had a lovely weeks holiday at Hilltop.”

A real family home. Hot tub was great and swimming lengths could actually be done in the pool. Gardens large and safe for children. Football, rounders and many other games played by adults and children. Kitchen very, very well stocked. Beds brilliant very comfortable. As city people the quiet of the surrounding countryside and looking at the night sky, so dark with the stars glistening all around was a delight. A big thank you to Michelle for use of the house and the fab welcome basket.

- Margareet, August 2023

It was lovely to meet you all and we are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Hilltop House. We loved that you enjoyed the darkness and peace of the countryside away from your city lives and hope you will return for a similar experience sometime in the future. You carried on despite some very British weather - well done! We are so pleased that you have happy memories to take home with you. Thank you for visiting. Property Owner
Margie July 2023

“We had a warm welcome from Michelle & Roger.”

A perfect property for our family holiday. A large garden for all the family to play games. The children were in the pool every day whatever the weather. Adults enjoyed the hot tub. It was useful having a television lounge and a quiet lounge with comfortable sofas. The kitchen is well equipped. All the beds were comfortable. We had a problem with the hot water which was dealt with immediately. We all thoroughly enjoyed our week at Hilltop House. The children did not want to leave.

- Margie, July 2023

It is always lovely to hear that visitors have enjoyed their stay and that your children were unaffected by this year's particularly inclement weather. It was lovely to meet you all and thank you for coming. Property Owner
Karen July 2023

“A house with WOW factor.”

Really enjoyed our stay here, albeit in rather wet and windy conditions but the house did not let us down. Had everything you could possibly need from kitchen utensils to games and entertainment. Looking foward to another visit soon. Thank you to Michelle and family for being so helpful and a big hug to Archie.

- Karen, July 2023

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay and did not let the weather dampen your visit. It was surely testing! Thank you for your booking and we would love to welcome you back soon. Property Owner
Francine May 2023

“We had a very pleasant and friendly welcome.”

The house was very spacious and well equipped. Even though the weather was sunny, it was still a little heroic to use the swimming pool in May, But the hot tub proved very popular. The grounds of the house were vast and allowed children and teenagers to have plenty of fun. As we had 3 children under five maybe a little play area with a little climbing frame or slide would have been welcome. We all had a very good time.

- Francine, May 2023

We were all so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Hilltop- it was lovely to meet you all. Property Owner
Lindsay February 2023

“We were a family group ranging from 2 years old to 80 years old!”

We all had a great time and had loads of space. Hilltop is a lovely house, still dont know my way around it! Games room was a great addition and the hot tub was used by the adults. We would love to go back in the Summer to mkae use of the amazing grounds. Michelle was really helpful and couldnt do enough for us. Thank you so much.

- Lindsay, February 2023

We are so pleased that Hilltop House was enjoyed by your group for that special Birthday! It was good to meet you all - thank you so much for your booking and we would be delighted to see you returning for a Summer holiday. Property Owner
Ruth February 2023

“Hilltop house is a lovely place to stay, the house is so homely, even though all the rooms are huge.”

Part of its charm is that it feel lived in, the beautiful antique furniture and some of the soft furnishings have obviously been there for many years, but this adds to the relaxed comfy feel. The garden and outside space is brilliant and the views beautiful. Would definitely go back there.

- Ruth, February 2023

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Hilltop House and that you felt so relaxed and comfortable, this is our aim. Thank you for your booking and we hope to see you again one day. Property Owner

Rachel January 2023

“An amazing grand old farmhouse with huge rooms and higgledy piggledy staircases.”

Warm comfy beds. A real find. We had a fantastic family birthday weekend so special to all sit round the huge dining table. Lovely host. Bring warm clothes if booking in winter. Consistent with the style and age of house the log fire is cosy but bedrooms get cool. Thanks Michelle.

- Rachel, January 2023
Ann January 2023

“We had a wonderful weekend celebrating a late Christmas.”

We were two large families and had everything we needed. The kitchen is well equipped and we learnt how to use an aga; thank you Michelle for explaining the different oven temperatures. The house is spacious, we were two family groups with 5 children 5 and under and 16 adults. We had enough hot water and had no problems with showers! Equally the hot tub was a treat under the stars. The beds were all comfortable and everyone was warm enough. We enjoyed the wood burner and had the perfect number of logs for our 3 night stay.

- Ann, January 2023

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Hilltop. Thank you for your booking, it was lovely to meet you all and thank you for leaving the house in such good order. Property Owner
Lisa December 2022

“Literally the only little niggle I can give after a lovely stay is that it would be great if the hot tub had a roof so when it's raining you're under shelter.”

Other then that (and flickering light in kitchen) it was an amazing house, really enjoyable stay, kids loved it! Thank you.

- Lisa, December 2022

We were so pleased that you all enjoyed staying at Hilltop House, thank you for coming. Thank you also for pointing out the issue with the kitchen lighting and on investigation, there was a problem with the dimming element of the switch which has now been replaced. Property Owner

Jacqueline December 2022

“It would have been nice to be able to read in bed, but the bedside lamps were very dark.”

Those using the aga who were not accustomed to them, would have appreciated instructions. One of the bathroom showers didn’t work well. Overall we LOVED the property.

- Jacqueline, December 2022

I am sorry that you found it difficult to read in bed and the you had an issue with a shower. I am always happy to pop in to resolve issues and would have been happy to help with the AGA. We are so pleased that you loved coming to Hilltop House, it was lovely to meet you all. Property Owner
Kulvinder September 2022

“Lovely house with lovely host Had an amazing time celebrating my sons 18th birthday at this beautiful house.”

The views and walks were fantastic. Will be returning again as its a great stay to meet up with family and friends. It had everything it needed and more. The rooms are a bit dated but its the character of the house Everything for us was perfect

Esme August 2022

“This is a quirky old house.”

Many of the floors are very uneven, but overall our family enjoyed it. The outside swimming pool was too cold. A table tennis table would have been appreciated. The gardens were beautiful. One shower didn’t work and a few light bulbs needed replacing, but Michelle, the owner, was lovely and we could have contacted her about anything. Flowers and a basket with cake, wine etc were left for us, which was a lovely touch. We would visit the house again.

- Esme, August 2022

We are so pleased that you enjoyed staying at Hilltop House. I am easy to contact and would have been happy to pop in and replace any light bulbs that had blown and help you with the shower which does need a delicate hand on the controls. Thank you for your booking, hope to see you all again one day. Property Owner
Lesley August 2022

“The house is really lovely - this is the second year we stayed.”

It’s even better having a heated pool this year even though we had the sunshine, and the garden is terrific for little ones to run around. We loved the space, the hot tub, the comfy bedrooms, the access to Tenby and Ludlow and the glorious views. Michelle is very kind and helpful, she fixes things with great speed ( the microwave went bang ….) and left a splendid welcome basket and very yummy cake on our arrival. The dining table fits 20 easily, the kitchen is great for rolling breakfasts and the second dishwasher helps. The showers could work better but all in all we loved our stay both years, thank you to everyone and we hope to return.

- Lesley, August 2022
Mithu August 2022

“Hilltop House is the perfect place for a large get together and the Welcome basket of goodies in the the kitchen was a lovely surprise.”

Michelle (owner) met us on arrival and was available throughout for any questions etc. She’s really friendly and approachable. The house is spacious and even with 20 in the group, we had lots of room including the dogs. Given the lovely weather we made good use of the ample gardens, games room, BBQ and hot-tub. The house does need a few updates e.g. loose handles but they are period features and it was sorted as soon as we got in touch. It’s a shame the Tally-Ho was closed for refurbishment during our stay, so there wasn’t a pub nearby. However Tenbury Wells was only a short drive away with shops, cafes and restaurants. We’d definitely recommend the Peacock Inn and Bahar (Indian)- good food and great service at both places. We definitely enjoyed our stay and would recommend Hilltop House to other potential visitors. Dog friendly house.

- Mithu, August 2022

We are very pleased that you enjoyed staying at Hilltop House - it was good to meet you all. Thank you for your booking and maybe we will see you again one day. Property Owner
Sylvia July 2022

“We had the most wonderful family holiday at Hilltop House.”

It was everything you could want for a family gathering. Michelle greeted us on our arrival and walked us through the house which was really lovely and spacious. There was a lovely welcome basket waiting for us which was very much appreciated. There was nothing we could fault, it had so much charm and Michelle was on the end of the phone for any queries we had. Nobody wanted to leave when the week was over, we had such fun playing French cricket in the gardens every evening. Thank you Michelle for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home.

“What a fantastic stay!”

From the general wow factor of the place, to the lovely amenities, to the thoughtful additions and gifts from the host, this was a luxurious stay worth every penny. My nearly 3-year old was in love with the play room and still talks about the holiday weeks later. I'll definitely recommend it to others and will hopefully be back one day!

- Sarah, July 2022

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Hilltop and that you all enjoyed the house and its amenities. It was lovely to meet you all and hopefully we will see you again one day! Property Owner
Teresa May 2022

“We had a lovely holiday at Hilltop House, and there were lots of places to visit with grandchildren and dogs.”

The garden set up and hot tub were great , and it was just as much fun to stay in and BBQ. A farm gate would have been useful at the open side of the house, to keep dogs snd children off the drive.The owners were very friendly and welcoming . The delicious Victoria sponge, hamper and flowers was a nice touch. Teresa Patrick

“My family en mass spent the Easter weekend at Hilltop House to celebrate a number of important Birthdays at one go.”

The house easily accommodated all 20 in great comfort and everyone had a brilliant time. The house itself is well equipped with plenty of space and we were able to employ outside caterers who were able to use the kitchen with east. Highly recommend for a luxury weekend away.

Carole March 2022

“This house surpassed all expectations and was even more stunning than the photographs.”

It incorporated everything you could possibly want for a congenial and comfortable family holiday. All the bedrooms are spacious and comfortable and most have beautiful views across the surrounding countryside. Michelle and her cleaning staff prepare with great care and attention to detail including vases of fresh flowers and candles in the candelabra to complete the ambience. The kitchen is a dream and the aga a joy to cook with when catering for a large group. We had excellent weather and made full use of the hot tub and the barbecue on the terrace. But if you were unlucky enough to encounter standard English downpours there are plenty of distractions inside the house with a plethora of games and puzzles on offer. The poolroom is well equipped with its own kitchen and fridge, and and a most enjoyable evening was spent engaged in a very competitive, if somewhat unprofessional pool tournament for the Tenbury Wells Badger Trophy - named after the stuffed one displayed in the corner. The owners are friendly and helpful and on call should you encounter any problems. We had a wonderful long weekend and would recommend this house to anyone.

- Carole, March 2022

Katherine March 2022

“Hilltop House was absolutely perfect for our large party of 20.”

It's a beautiful old farmhouse with all the wonderful quirks you'd expect with it's age and history. The house was enjoyed by 3 generations, from 3 to 70 and everything had been thought of. There owners were very responsive and friendly. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a wonderful countryside break for a large party.

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Hilltop House and the surprise Birthday celebrations. It was lovely to meet you all, thank you for coming! Property Owner

Sarah December 2021

“The property is absolutely stunning, very well equipped and had everything you could possibly need.”

The views and walks around the property are beautiful. There were a few minor issues within the property that would probably have gone unnoticed if it wasn’t for the high damage deposit (although it is completely understandable why this is in place). Overall, a fabulous time was had by all and we would definitely return.

Brett November 2021

“Our stay at Hilltop House was everything and more of what we had planned to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary.”

We were met by Michelle, and had been in contact with her prior to our arrival and our calls were always met with patience and nothing seemed too difficult. The house was large enough to accommodate our enormous family, but it still felt cosy, a really beautiful, handsome house. The play room was well used by the smaller ones in our group. Well appointed with an impressive dining area with many features to host such a family occasion. The only points we would like to make are that the dog owners felt that a more secure garden to ensure that the pooches didn't wander might be considered. We struggled with the heating as some of the rooms had variable temperatures! Finally, with so many of us using the hot water system, the power showers in the family bathroom, on the top floor was not cooperating, and apparently they could not call it a "power " shower! All in all everyone of us had an amazing time there, thank you!

- Brett, November 2021
Janet October 2021

“HIlltop house was a perfect place to get our family together for a significant birthday weekend.”

On a stormy Saturday we were warm and cosy. Locall footpaths in lovely scenery were enjoyed by all. The house is well equipped, quirky and cosy. We had a wonderful time and would certainly recommend it.

- Janet, October 2021
Karen October 2021

“We had a fabulous time in a wonderful house.”

Any issues raised with the owners were dealt with quickly and satisfactorily. The only thing missing were oven gloves!

“We have just return from our girlie weekend, to celebrate my retirement, at Hilltop.”

The house and ground were outstanding and from very aspect the views were beautiful. The house itself was thoughtfully laid out and very well equipped. The bedrooms were large and the beds extremely comfortable. We made full use of the hot tub and games room. Our only critism of the facilities was that now it's going dark earlier, the walk across the grass, was hazardous. One of our girls fell over, didn't see the step. Perhaps a gravel path and/or solar lights to guide the way. However this didn't detract from our enjoyment. Can't recommend this house enough. Thank you

Many thanks for your feedback and for since advising that your friend was carrying things in the dark and she didn't see the change in surfaces, so she walked off the path by accident. We are glad to hear that she bounced back up and the evening carried on without further events and it didn't detract from your enjoyment of this wonderful house. In your review you said that you failed to mention the lovely welcome pack, provided by the owner Michelle. It was delicious. Property Owner

“The absolutely perfect venue for 20 family members to get together and enjoy very special times.”

“What a brilliant venue for a long-awaited family holiday!”

The generously proportioned house swallowed up our family of 20 very comfortably. All the bedrooms were nicely presented, the general living spaces were generous and the kitchen was very well equipped for the number of people. Outside the hot tub and the swimming pool were immediate hits with everybody as were the very large well-kept garden and lawn, where we were able to play numerous games. The owners were very helpful and adapted to any requests that we made. They also left us a basket full of local produce which we very much enjoyed. In the evening, after eating around a very lovely dining table many of the party would go to the pool room, which was great fun. The surrounding area is very picturesque and provided some pretty and occasionally challenging walks. Tenbury Wells is an attractive market town and everyone was very friendly and helpful. Thank you from ALL our family

“For a big family get-together this place is just great.”

Amazing views too. The children really enjoyed the facilities, including the hot tub and the swimming pool. The garden is huge and full of flowers (the photos do not do it justice) and we had good games of football and rounders there. The owners were helpful and responsive too.

“We had a lovely time at Hilltop House.”

We met with the owners who were lovely. Thank you Roger and Michelle for sharing your home with us. You made us feel very welcome. Although there were some limitations due to Covid-19 with visiting places, we still managed to have a very relaxing week and the kids had a ball (age 14-19) - and so did the dogs : ) Would definitely recommend Hilltop House Thanks

Whether it is the large, enticing sitting room with comfortable seating, a TV, and a wood burner, or the huge quieter sitting room where you can take some time to enjoy space without noise.

The kitchen boasts a country house feel, providing all of the necessary appliances, the heart of which is a four-oven oil-fired AGA cooker and a solid rustic table that you can assemble before the day begins.

Later on, bring the group together in the formal dining room, with the drama of huge antique furniture, and a table for all twenty guests to enjoy eating before the inglenook fireplace.
