Step Inside

The tone is set as soon as you enter. Chandeliers hang from ceilings, artwork adorns the walls and there are antiques and objet d'art everywhere. Georgian features underpin it all, but there's a mix of styles put together with flair - and more than the occasional Victorian flourish.

Having said all that, this place is no museum. It's there to be lived in and enjoyed and is very much a family home. The turquoise sofas of the peacock-themed drawing room and the oatmeal Chesterfield in the neighbouring sitting room are as comfy as they are stylish. There's a grand dining room where you can eat together and a kitchen that's a pleasure to cook in.

Step outside to mature landscaped gardens with established hedges, winding pathways and colourful foliage. There's a furnished patio for outdoor dining, a barbecue for summer evenings, and a hot tub overlooking pastoral countryside towards the Brecon Beacons.

Keep the group entertained with croquet on the lawn, badminton and a trampoline for the children. Or simply find a quiet corner with a book and let the Wye Valley views do the rest.
