The company

A perfect balance between a building and its environment, between a home and a hotel, between the past and present, and between nature and people.

It’s a place where every element is in harmony. A lovely and comfortable house, with intimate service and personal touches. Close to London, but miles from every day life. Tranquil and cheerful, where people leave refreshed and relaxed. Enchanting and elegant, a place that is part of history but that feels your own.

A glorious escape: where the changing seasons are reflected and celebrated. Where generations become part of its story. Where imaginative gardens supply inspired and thoughtful cuisine. Where 400 years of history meets the needs of today. Where every element delights the senses.
