This historic estate features a remarkable manor house dating back to the 15th century, originally a Pilgrims Inn, with richly panelled rooms, exposed wooden beams, and period furnishings. Key interiors include a distinguished Drawing Room, Monks Parlour, Elizabethan Painted Panelled Room, Kings Room with four-poster bed, Library, Octagonal Room, and a striking Victorian Music Room, still used for concerts and events. The house also has unique historical features, including a Holy Well, remains of a Knights Templar building, and connections to royal, literary, and artistic heritage, offering a wealth of versatile spaces for period dramas, music performances, and feature shoots.
The estate also includes a mid-20th century tearoom with a south-facing conservatory and charming gardens, alongside other historic buildings such as a Victorian Glass House and rural museum sheds. Over five acres of landscaped gardens provide a range of backdrops, from formal topiary and rose gardens to woodland walks, a water garden with a small lake and island, and themed spaces such as an English Poetry Garden and a King’s Garden. These diverse interiors and exteriors make the estate ideal for film, photography, and commercial productions seeking period authenticity or picturesque outdoor settings.
